  Cycle Of Abuse
Generational cycles of abuse are passed down, by example and exposure, from parents to children.
The episodic cycle of abuse is characterized by distinct periods of behavior that eventually result in an extreme episode of verbal and/or physical abuse.
The third portion of the cycle is characterized by a period of "normalcy." During this time frame the abusive spouse may appear to be truly living out his or her repentance.
