2 Jot-Aro Kujo Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 In what context? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2 SkyTuneRein Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 (edited) Neglect such as not looking after a child, especially tending to needs and letting them die, is a form of abuse and in many contexts is illegal. Relationship neglect however isn't, but some forms are still considered abuse. For marriages, types of neglect as well as desertion can be taken as grounds for divorce in some areas.

0 illumi Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 a quick google search tells me neglect is a form of abuse but idk much abt it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 dewy Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 (edited) Yeah neglect is a form of abuse and can be traumatic if that's what you're asking. I feel like I need more context to give a better answer though. Neglect and abusive behavior comes in a lot of forms, with some being more known/visible to the general public than others.
