If you neglect a child it's abuse. Sure we've all been abused in varying degrees, but many of our WASs did tell us and we didn't listen. Of course we didn't do it on purpose, but let's put it this way, if they slapped us and said "look we have a problem here" the LBS would look stunned and think that it's "their" problem.
We all had to go through this process which led to deep introspection and research to figure out what was wrong. Be honest with yourself, you wouldn't have figured all this out if your spouse didn't walk.

Emotion, yet peace. Ignorance, yet knowledge. Passion, yet serenity. Chaos, yet harmony. Death, yet a new life.
