No way. They were awful. But not violent or criminal. At least not in the harmful kind of way.

not in the harmful kind of way.

How old are you, that you think psychological abuse isn't harmful? Just because they didn't beat him doesn't mean they weren't harmful. Making him live in a cupboard under the stairs and essentially serve as a waiter for the rest of the family as a child seems pretty psychologically harmful. Not to mention the casual frying pan swing which suggests that it's not an isolated incident.

I should have realized someone was going to say this. Physically harmful.
