How to use "Violate" in context?
When we think about violating someone, the image that often comes to mind is of someone doing something wrong, like touching someone without permission.

It can even be something as simple as ignoring someone or not listening to them. Violating someone can have a tremendous impact on their life, and can even lead to them feeling angry, frustrated, and humiliated.
