text: Examples of this type of abuse (which I term Family Scapegoat Abuse, or FSA) by a parent toward a child include the child being blamed, shamed, dismissed, and/or belittled in public and at home; describing the child negatively to others, including in the child’s presence; always making the child at fault; holding the child to unrealistic expectations; using guilt, shame, and martyrdom in an attempt to make the child feel ‘bad’, ‘wrong’, and guilty; deliberating provoking / triggering the child as a means of asserting and establishing control; describing the child as ‘bad’, ‘crazy’, ‘a liar’, etc, to family and friends, at times in the child’s presence; verbalizing to the child and/or others an overt dislike and/or hatred of the child; being emotionally closed and unsupportive; and threatening the child (it should be noted that these forms of abuse are likely to be especially intense if one or both parents are personality disordered – Narcissistic Personality Disorder or Borderline Personality Disorder, especially).
