Abuse

Definition- taken from wikipedia

Abuse refers to the use or treatment of something (a person, item, substance, concept, or vocabulary) that is seen as harmful. The term comes from the words "abnormal use". It can be used for anything ranging from the misuse of a piece of equipment to the severe maltreatment of a person.

Several types of abuse include

  • Child abuse: Abuse, usually physical, emotional or sexual, directed at a child.
  • Spousal abuse (or domestic violence): Abuse, usually physical, or psychological abuse, directed at one's spouse.
