^Yup, exactly ... I can't remember if it was EP 1 or EP 2 but Jessica definitely states that her grandfather tried to beat her with a wooden sword or a cane, and it was implied that was the way he raised his kids, too.
edit: And of course I can't go into detail here, but I think it's very safe to say that generational abuse is an important overarching theme in Umineko.
