What 'The Secret Of Kells' Teaches us About Cellach
Abbot Cellach is one of the main characters of the 2009 animated film, The Secret Of Kells. He is the main caretaker and uncle for our main character, Brendan. Throughout the film he is shown to be very harsh with his nephew and with many other characters. Though much is implied, there is very little that is flatly stated about the man and his history. In fact, we never find through the film how he came to raise Brendan in the first place. For the sake of simplicity, I will only be covering what is in the movie, not true history. Today we are looking at the character of Abbot Cellach and what we can best piece together about the man's past.

What is verbal abuse? Verbal abuse, from consumer.healthday.com, is: Name-calling, belittling, swearing, insulting, Indirect criticism, such as disparaging your child to your spouse, rejecting or threatening abandonment, threatening bodily harm, scapegoating or blaming, using excessive sarcasm (Making a mocking remark, such as "Now that was smart" when victim spills juice on the rug). Verbal abuse is a form of abuse that is often overlooked, as there are rarely physical symptoms of the abuse itself. It is not seen as ‘real abuse’ by many adults, and unless you can find proof, many members of child protection around the world will also not see it as true abuse. Verbal abuse can often lead to deep scars, mental issues, and lasting effects on someone's mind as they grow up, and sometimes they don't even realize where these effects come from.
