The power of persuasion can be abused in many ways. Hitler is a good example he was a very persuasive speaker charismatic he persuaded all of Germany to World War III killing millions.
I think the power of persuasion is being abused in the marketing campaigns these days it seems like everyone is using sex appeal to sell everything even a bottle of shampoo or a pack of gum. I think this type of persuasiveness in advertising is going too far. Divorced families can also abuse persuasion by using the children to get information about the other parent or get the child to come live with the one parent and not the other. Persuasion is very powerful if a person knows how to do it he/she can get the person their talking to do, say or buy just about anything they want them too.
Persuasion can be good also like persuading your child to walk or talk. This is good persuasion because your using positive behavior to get them to do what you want them to do.
Persuasion is good and bad you have to be careful how you use it and also how you view it.
