Intimidation tries to control a child by fear. A child learns to fear the parent and obeys the parent fearing emotional or physical pain\u2014which is usually abusive.<\/p>\n
Physical intimidation uses beating.<\/p>\n
Emotional intimidation uses angry, tearing, degrading, undignified words and actions.<\/p>\n
