Verbal Abuse

Sabrina Minton Mrs. Laura Ahmed English 3A 10-25-10 literal Abuse The reason wherefore I choose this topic is because I sop up been a dupe of verbal vitiate. Many people know or have hear of some(prenominal)one that has been verbally poke fund. Many people including myself be suffer in silence and feel isolated. Many parts of human action, include the wit and heart. As he thinks within himself, so he is. What does a somebody think in his or her mind, and heart will be reflected and his or her words or actions. In this paper, I want to address this precise important issue in an effort to understand this phenomenon and provide answers.Verbal abuse and material abuse result from a world view that is all the way not biblical. The difficulty of verbal abuse is that there are no visible signs. The majority cases verbal abusers are practically male and the victim is usually female. Kerby Anderson who wrote Verbal Abuse has umteen degrees. He has a B. S. from operating theatre State University, M. F. S from Yale University, and M. A. from Georgetown University. And has authored many books (Anderson). Patricia Evan has written many books and has been influencen on KTLA5THECW, FOX11 intelligence agency, Oprah Winfrey Show, Sonya Live-CNN and NEWS TALK.She has done over two hundred radio programs, and seventeen field television shows (Evans). Kerby Anderson says he writes his paper from an educated point of view still more importantly he is man. Men are most often the abuser in a relationship with women being the victim. Mr. Anderson has several degrees and advocates that some(prenominal)(prenominal) the victim and abuser seek help and support within their spectral faith. He feels that this behavior is often learned at home and that veneration to family and church and help train these abusers.He also suggests that godly men and women piece together to lovingly confront the person who is verbally abusing the victim. He suggests that the abuser confro nts their sin and make an attempt to change with the support of the church. Patricia Evans does not have an educational degree but has written several books and established a foundation for support and workshops for people who feel that have been abused. Ms. Evans is a adult female and has a very therapeutic point of treatment. She feels angry or scathing words will destroy your confidence or self-esteem. She views verbal abuse s a boiling cauldron of pain and anguish in possibly millions of homes. She worries that a person who might cross from verbal to physical abuse is give carely to show signs of an impending physical assault by launching intense and repeated verbal attacks, by indulging in rages or by becoming abusive in public. She tends to address the unavoidably of the abuser with support groups, workshops and books to help identify behavior and help signalise and deal with abusive people. I wrote my paper with a personal bias, as I have been the victim of verbal abuse. I decided to contrast two different authors based on approach, education and gender.Although only Mr. Anderson has degrees, both have written books and have excellent references. I really want that both people had a written books. Often times victims are of low income and self help books can be a great resource. Mr. Anderson suggests the church as s support group and for many people this would probably be a workable option. I in person prefer a more therapeutic approach. I thought the initiation of workshops with people who had experienced similar situations and the added support of therapists and staff would make for a better option to help stop the pattern of abuse.The workshops would seem to be the best way to educate yourself and learn the behavior skills to help look you avoid future situations. I felt both authors had excellent education. Mr. Andersons education was in a bookform with 7 pages that read like a textbook. Ms. Evans information was keyed to specific questio ns that a person would answer, match to their feeling and situation. Again there are questions that redirect the readerto other page with topic specific information with a set of questions to see if you needed more information or had obtained the information you needed.The pages also associate to workshops, support groups, self help books, and videos. Mr. Andersons advice and information may suit some people well and they may already attend a church. To be fair Mr. Andersons information is relevant for anyone, just as Ms Evans would be appropriate for a religious person. If someone was looking for good information and options of the subject, either author would be able to provide that.Works Cited Anderson, Kerby.
