Mentally abusive just because he used drugs around them or because he lashed out at them while on drugs?

One of the bad memories I took away from I'll Sleep When I'm Dead was how bad Warren Zevon was to his children. He didn't hit them, but would physically push them away and just outright ignore them. Whenever Lindsey gives that line about being glad he waited until he had kids because he saw friends of his who didn't, I think of Zevon.
