You probably are considered abusive to someone, you might not even know it.

I have absolutely been abusive at times growing up and probably in my professional life. I’ve been put in my place many times. And I learn and grow from that. I was not a perfect teenager and I’m definitely not a perfect adult.

I hope people wouldn’t tolerate it if I did it to them.

but I hope you understand that if no one did tolerate the abusive then our psych wards and hospitals would be about half as full, right?

That isn't to say that half didn't need help -- it's that humans who need help can be abusive.

So.. what do we do with them? Ignoring these people is about the same fate as 'compartmentalizing' them into a wood-chipper -- doomed.
