Power and Control Wheel

Power and Control Wheel

What is truly sad is how easily someone who is injured, elderly or disabled can be victimized in these ways. In my case, every one of them was used on me. Though as a male, it would be called "family privilege."

Because an injured, elderly or disabled person is already feeling much less than themselves, abuse is easy. The person is already feeling victimized by fate. All the abuser has to do is fill in a blank to put a face and a voice to it.
