Parental bullying of children

Parental bullying of children is when a parent uses their power or authority to make their child feel scared or bad. This can include things like yelling at a child, calling them names, threatening them, or making them do something they don't want to do. It can also mean punishing the child in ways that are too harsh or not letting them do things that other children do. Parental bullying makes children feel scared, embarrassed, and isolated. It can also lead to mental health issues in the future.
