Skip to the end for the short answer on how to change this sentence🙌
It's a little bit difficult to explain, but let me try:
Hurting someone such as verbal abuse is X
can be separated, technically, in 2 ways
A: [Hurting someone] [such as verbal abuse] is X
B:[Hurting][someone such as verbal abuse] is X
My mind very strongly wants to read it as B, I think because "Someone such as [simple noun]" is very common. This would be incorrect, since a person =\= verbal abuse
to read it as A, I would have to use commas to make an interrupter:
1) Hurting someone, such as verbal abuse,
or, thanks to @KaelaG's answer for reminding me, I would have to make a phrase which is more natural to compare to "hurting someone," so
2) Hurting someone such as with verbal abuse ~
but 1) sounds a bit unnatural like that.
-(short answer here ⬇️)-
So, here are some options:
Hurting someone such as with verbal abuse...
Hurting someone, such as with verbal abuse, ...
The act of hurting someone, such as verbal abuse, ...
