- Sarcasm: When instead of directly talking about the problem, the person comments sarcastically.
- Backhanded Compliment: A subtle form of passive-aggressive behaviour, where the individual gives a backhanded compliment, which is an insult in disguise.
- Avoidance: When the child or spouse is refusing to speak for a long time.
- Inaction: When the task or appointment is purposely missed, and no intimation is provided, with the clear intention to hurt the other person.
