My dad was abusive when we were kids. I see there being a few reasons:
1. He had low self esteem and I know that when the world picked on him, he would take it out on the wife and kids.
2. He didn't know how to control his anger.
3. My mom would keep on doing things that he hated. I know it sounds awful to put it on my mom, but sometimes she really did just push his buttons even though she knew what was coming.
4. I'm guessing he was just raised that way.
Disclaimer: I might be wrong, these are just the reasons I think are responsible for my dad's abusiveness.
