Highly verbal kids, and that is generally kids who read a lot, will be told they are smart whether you do it or not. And if you're child's teachers are telling you how smart they are, and they ask you "Dad, my teacher said I'm really smart, do you think I'm really smart?"

The resistance, by the way, was entirely verbal, specifically, I said: "no I don't think that's a good idea" and slowly backed away from them. No cursing, or disrespect, or any threatening motion.

While I don't agree with physical or verbal abuse, I think in this case Fiance probably hurt Bukowski more with her words than he did with his kick. It certainly didn't seem like he was kicking her because he "thought it was funny to kick women".

Because all the cycles are allocated to the verbal system rendering motor system immobile.

Amazon is like the cult of scientology: It sounds really great on the way in, but well before you get to the verbal abuse, the death marches, denial of sleep and the beatings[1] you realize it was all a lie.

In a nutshell, this is why the problem is so hard to fix: > When I was raising my first round, it fell apart because > an A-list investor who had given us a verbal commitment > backed out.

But apparently the verbal interaction is important as well between two doctors and can't easily be summarized in writing. And I've overheard plenty of handoffs and can attest to the interactions between doctors and the nuance that can't be expressed in writing.

Nowhere in the memo does it say "you will not be asked to explain why it's medically necessary", and in fact, the reason they probably recommend doctors notes/etc, is to avoid having to repeat a verbal explanation 100x over. Realistically, if he challenges this in court, he's likely to end up making bad law.

By 4 months of age, boys and girls differ in how much eye contact they make, and differences in sociability, emotional expressivity, and verbal ability—all of which depend on interactions with parents—grow throughout childhood.

I come from an officially poor background, but it wasn't until I started learning about my girlfriend's family back in her native, third-world country that I really got a sense for what third-world poverty is: - Constant verbal, physical, sometimes sexual abuse--the stuff that really traumatizes people into doing these same things across generations. This isn't the stuff you learn about in the news because, sadly, to many people living in those conditions, it's part of life.

I remember how much I hated every environment that I was, where "verbal abuse" was curtailed, because I never knew if someone was saying the truth or not, and in the end I started to behave like if everyone was a serial liar, and when you cannot trust anyone, it is hard to get anything done.

It doesn't even have to come from HR. Negative verbal feedback from the boss might be genuine constructive criticism. He might be trying to groom you into a leader.
