Abuse...

Months ago while talking to my bishop, he asked me, "What do you define as Abuse?" Yes, I did take the way he said as he was trying to minimize it, but oh well, I'm over it.

Today while looking at my Church's web site I found this "Abuse is the treatment of others or self in a way that causes injury or offense. It harms the mind and the spirit and often injures the body as well. It can cause confusion, doubt, mistrust, and fear. It is a violation of the laws of society and is in total opposition to the teachings of the Savior. The Lord condemns abusive behavior in any form—physical, sexual, verbal, or emotional."
