Why do some men emotionally abuse thier wives/partners?
a quick example- He knows that the wife’s weak point is her eldest child yet he always torments her emotionally, by taking advantage of her weak point.
She takes care of all his needs and wants yet he still does this…
What effect will it have on the children tht witness this?
And most importantly how can we put a stop to this behaviour and why do they do it? Is it because they have also seen similar things happening in their home amongst their own parents?
if ur sane enough to reply then Please dont mention divorce as an option.

How does he take advantage of her weak point? Is the child not his?
Re: Emotional Abuse
Yes the child is his yet he still uses the child as a way to torture her

Na i don't know why divorce is used as the first option, it's only when all ways to improve the relationship are unsuccessful and especially if there's abuse physical/verbal. divorce shouldn't even be thought of. It's always the very very last option
in terms of an emotionally abusive person that's using children as a way of torturing another person, humans do change their behavior but only in extreme cases
only you can tell if this emotional abuser will change his ways. is marriage counseling something he's open to? a third person that's a professional therapist is the only one other than he himself, that can make him see what he's doing to you is destroying the marriage and maybe the therapist can point out ways you can improve yourself too to make the relationship better.
