In the USA the elders who get abused were the abusers previously.

No, this man needs to be taught a lesson I think. His viewpoint his whole life has been that the powerful can be abusive. Well who has the power now? I'm not saying that you should abuse him. What I am saying is that I feel that he needs to see who has the power now. You can show him with your eyes who has the power now.

Call him out on his abuse when he does it. "You are abusing me and I am helping you"?

No, this isn't true, people change when they receive consequences for their behavior.

I'd tell him he's full of sh..

Abusive people really piss me off.

Find your anger and take the power from it.
