I was made fun of a lot by my siblings. They would purposely provoke me and pick on me a lot, knowing that it would upset me, and then make fun of me when I got mad. When I was dating my first husband, my sister and brother in law were my legal guardians, and my BIL would make fun of me and humiliate me in front of him. Even at other times, making fun of the way I ate, etc. My sister would talk to me in baby talk around him. They both were constantly trying to embarrass me in front of people. And when and if I stood up for myself, they would either make fun of me or be extremely angry--calling me "defensive" and rebellious, etc. That's just the tip of the iceberg--there was a lot more than that my whole life.
I feel that was one way I was abused.
