Oh, my, yes. It can take the form of doing things like leaving a woman at home with the child and going out partying every weekend, refusing to do any household chores because "that's woman's work, it's your problem", and it can certainly take the form of what you describe. And, as Wishful posted, it can be the most devastating form of abuse in many ways. Check out the board website, keep posting, Google the term "emotional abuse" and learn as much as you can; knowledge is power.
