Being a human is hard. There are so many physiological, psychological, social and cultural things that are in play all the time, there's bound to be hiccups every once in a while, if not more often.

I'm gonna answer this literally. As a teacher, I see there's a lot of different values that go into parenting styles, some that aren't my values but still raise a productive, responsible, and successful child. But there is evidence of bad parenting from a child development point-of-view. -Is extra clingy and implies or outright states your their sole custodian for their well-being. -Is incredibly aggressive about getting their way or being correct all the time. -Responds to slights or inconveniences violently. -Is extremely withdrawn and doesn't care for self. -On the flip side, is very self-sufficient from a very young age and also has anxiety and/or depression. -Seeks attention constantly. Not just a lot, but *constantly.* Obviously, the child abuse signs are indicators of not being raise right, and only apply here to actual children, but it never hurts to remind people of them: -Has suspicious bruising/injuries on body where it's not normal to have injuries (ex. bruised forehead and skinned knees are normal on toddlers, black eyes are not) -Carefully covers parts of the body that would not normally be covered (Ex. Won't roll up sleeves even a little on hot days which, bonus, is also a sign of self-harm) -Is inappropriately sexual and/or knowledgable about sexuality for age group -Is weirdly afraid to be alone with another person. Not just, I dont want to go home because my dad's gonna give me a whuppin for starting a fight at school, but something like finding a lot of excuses to not hang out with an older cousin ever -Is often dirty, stinky, soiled -Is often underfed -Tells you they are being abused I took this way too seriously, but there you go! EDIT: People are commenting with personal situations that involve the warning signs of child abuse I mentioned, but aren't child abuse in their case. This is what makes it so hard to detect. Kids are always bruised, stinky, and secretive. What's important is to keep an open mind, and sort of observe a pattern of signs and behaviors. If alarm bells go off, our first impulse is to explain it away, but making an anonymous tip is not as harmful as people believe. In my experience, nothing is even investigated until the reports pile up unless you physically witness the abuse. EDIT 2: Just to be clear, the first list just means the parents or household should be better to optimally encourage the wellness of a child. The second is of warning signs of abuse.

How they treat animals and people without power. If they make messes in public areas and just wander off (leaving trash in the theater, not flushing, leaving the cart in a parking space). Edit: forgot the theater thing is the norm in Britain! I meant in general, leaving a mess where it's not supposed to be. Disrespecting people for doing their job. How they treat people from whom they have nothing to gain. How they act as a boss when their employee messes up. Yelling and belittling shouldn’t be your first option. They never say please or thank you. Someone that does things to intentionally hurt another persons feelings after they’ve expressed that, that certain thing hurts their feelings. Not respecting personal boundaries. If you're wondering why someone has these sorts of issues, take a look at their parents. They whistle, snap their fingers, or make that "pspsps" sound to get their server's attention in a restaurant. You give them a lift and they leave rubbish in your car. The word "no" just means throw a fit and be as obnoxious as you can be until you get your way. "No" does not mean that rules are rules or someone's job might be on the line, they're the important one, not anyone else. Not putting the cart back at the grocery store. Turning conversation back to themselves at all cost. Being a good listener is a sign of a person raised well. Edit: to clarify, I don’t mean quiet or a doormat. I mean generous, empathetic, supportive and curious. Good follow-up questions without making it about oneself, etc. People who don’t offer to help you clean up when they are visiting you. Like having friends over and them leaving you with all the beer bottles, bowls and glasses on the table. I don’t mind cleaning up, but I always offer when at someone else house. You make the mess together. They don't know how to do normal household stuff. I've seen people that don't even know how to make their own coffee or clean a toilet. Edit: I only mentioned making coffee as an example. If you don't know how to make coffee because you don't drink it, that's fine. They apologize for every little thing. Probably a sign that they grew up with abusive parents that got mad over anything and everything.
