Dominance Abuse

Dominance abuse occurs when one person uses their power or influence over another in an unfair or harmful way. This can happen in various relationships, such as in the workplace, at home, or in social settings, where the dominant individual may control decisions, limit choices, or manipulate others to maintain control. It’s a form of coercion that disregards the other person’s rights and well-being, leading to emotional, psychological, or even physical harm. Recognizing dominance abuse is important to promote respectful, equitable interactions and protect individuals from being oppressed or mistreated.
