Re: 145

[cleverthylacine]

no, because Ron belittles everything Hermione cares about, like her SPEW and her studying and her intellect and all that.

Re: 145

[qasr-e-shirin.livejournal.com]

Well, that's true, but I was under the impression that emotional abuse was a bit more than not liking someone's political cause and telling them so or finding their obsessive attention to detail tiresome. The underlying motive behind emotional abuse is to put the abuser in control, not to make the abused person feel bad about his or herself. Abusers often do make their victims feel worthless, because that makes them easier to dominate, but that isn't their goal in and of itself. Ron also lacks some of the other, and more disturbing aspects of emotionally abusive people. He doesn't constantly follow Hermione around; he doesn't threaten her; and he doesn't demand that she do things because he wants her to do them and he doesn't threaten to leave her if she disobeys him.

Below you noted, "[he doesn't] belittle Bella's academic and intellectual interests (like Ron does Hermione's)--in fact he encourages her to complete her education, it's Bella who doesn't want to." You left out that when Bella decides she doesn't want to college, Edward doesn't say, "Well, honey, it's your choice!" Instead, he blithely ignores what she says and submits her application anyway. This isn't the first time that Edward does this, either. In Twilight, he takes her to prom, even though she doesn't want to go and in New Moon, he and his family throw a birthday party for her even though she doesn't want a party.

All of this suggests to me that Edward believes that Bella just isn't capable of making her own decisions and she should pretty much do whatever he tells her, because he knows what's good for her. Call me oversensitive, but that bothers me more than Ron making fun of SPEW.
