When a child grows up in an abusive family it seems normal to her because that is all she knows. I went from neglect in my first family to neglect in my marriage and didn't know that is what I was doing. There were times when I hurt so much that I wished that my husband would hit me so that I could leave him because I couldn't call what was happening abuse.
