Anger v neglect

I wonder, is neglect more damaging than anger?

Not to an employee.

I’d say an employee would love to be left alone.

But to a child.

Is it worse for the child to grow up thinking they are worthless?

Like as long as the anger isn’t violent and it’s only words.

And yes not ideal to pass on anger but could it be preferable to someone always thinking they are an after thought?

I think it could be because you can tame anger a lot easier than building self worth – at least in my opinion.
