CONT: Finally, it is recommended that the project team give serious consideration to the development of ""labels"" ... [to] increase the likelihood that ... [the subtler sub-categories of abuse] will be perceived as harmful.... For example, withholding affection in order to control behaviour - as one form of emotional abuse in the passive mode - could be referred to as ""emotional blackmail"".
