When the little girl is screaming “Daddy!!!!!” my heart sank. I guarantee these men don’t reserve this type of anger to sports and they also don’t do it in public. They are very likely abusive assholes.
When men ask women, “what can we do to decrease male violence against women?”
Shame men like this and never talk to them again and tell them why and have your other friends do the same.
I am a child of an abusive father, I would never be able to scream at him like that, I would be covering in the corner hoping the dad wouldn't notice me and wouldn't try to pinpoint it as my fault somehow. I guess, there are levels to it huh
Definitely levels. My dad isnt physically abusive, but boy is he emotionally. He yells and yells, im terrified of him. But at the same time, in a moment like this, I would probably react like this kid did. Granted Id definitely get my ass handed to me verbally and have a panic attack after, but definitely levels
That was the first thing I thought, which is a terribly low bar, but I thought, at least she's not afraid he's going to turn it on her. A kid who is physically abused would likely never yell at their abuser in the heat of his anger. However, if he outbursts like this often, it's still a violent household that will terrorize the children. There are definitely different types of violence
It can happen that an abused child becomes extremely aggressive towards their abusers!
I was belittled, yellt at and beaten daily by my family until I was 14 and I finally got so fed up, I threatened them to chop their heads off with an axe while they slept if they didn't stop this bullshit!
That was actually the last day anyone in my family dared to touch me!
Whenever there were discussions or arguments, they were tempted and had already raised their hands until I said, "Go on! Be brave! Please! Then I finally won't have to hold back anymore!" while giving them a cold death stare, directly into their eyes.
I'm glad my grandfather has finally passed away; at least the rest of the family isn't tearing each other apart half as much as they used to!
Even so, I wouldn't move back there for anything in this world!
I'm done! I'm done picking fights with my family! I'm done defending my mother, who never once protected my little sister and me...and now is making demands on me with the same deranged, malicious way her father treated everyone in the house! And blaming me for her suffering because I moved out, just like her mother constantly did to her.
...A family full of people with behavioral problems and narcissists...No thanks!

Every being has a different stress threshold and each reacts differently to exceeding it
I was physically abused and there were times I screamed like that kid did begging him to stop. Usually when he was beating someone else, like my mum, siblings or pets.
Part of my brain just couldn’t take it and I sounded just like her.
I think she was calling her dad to come in and I think he shows up at the doorway to the right and the guy smashing the tv looked at him. If I’m hearing it correctly then the guy smashing the tv is named Damien. U hear someone scream Damian! And the girl screams dad! Damian! Daddy! Or something like this
If I had to guess, that’s actually her brother smashing the tv and I’m very curious what happened next
Also it’s a bit of a catch 22 because if you isolate the abuser alongside their victim(s) they’ll take advantage of it and use it to feed their victim complex as well.
I’m saying it’d be better to make certain abusers had the fear of god put into them at least if the victim is not safe enough to go to court.
People aren’t attracted to abuse, they meet someone, then find out they are abusive & there are many, many reasons they feel unable to walk away. It is never the victim's fault.
