What do you do if a family member verbally abuse you because of money?

[Henrywrites]

I expect every family to live in harmony in a way that financial issues should not affect what the members of the family share with one another. However, how are you going to react to a situation where one of your family members attack you verbally because of money matters? Will you let it slide or fight back?

If a family member becomes verbally abusive over money, I'd try to separate the financial issue from the personal attacks. I'd try to avoid arguing while emotions are high, and end the conversation if the abuse continues. If it becomes a pattern, I'd consider distancing.
