Suicide can be an outcome of verbal abuse.

Villas - Suicide can be an outcome of verbal abuse. It doesn't make sense that adults like to cause pain to young people in need of love and encouragement to thrive. A child needs to love life enough to live it, and have pride in themselves. As parents and teachers, we need to stop name calling our kids and punishing kids to make them feel like nothing. I often hear of teachers name calling kids in class. Parents, just because you had a bad day doesn't give you a pass to degrade your child. Stop and think how you would feel if you were constantly shamed. Make a positive change today.
