THE BATTERER MAY BRUTALLY PUNISH ANIMALS OR BE INSENSITIVE TO THEIR PAIN OR SUFFERING. HE MAY EXPECT CHILDREN TO BE CAPABLE OF DOING THINGS FAR BEYOND THEIR ABILITY AND THEN PUNISH THEM WHEN THEY DO NOT MEET HIS EXPECTATIONS. FOR EXAMPLE, HE MAY SPANK A 2 YR OLD FOR WETTING A DIAPER. HE MAY TEASE CHILDREN UNTIL THEY CRY. HE MAY NOT WANT THE CHILDREN TO EAT AT THE TABLE OR EXPECT THEM TO STAY IN THEIR ROOMS WHILE HE IS AT HOME.
