^ Well, there are many abuse, not just sexual abuse.

Definitely Alison was mentally abused by her mother because she taught her how to lie, it's something she was always used to, no wonder it's so easy for her to tell a lie and get away with it. Then, if Jessica had some kind of mental disorder (because burying your daughter is not exactly what a sane person would do), Alison maybe inherited it. Besides, she might have had a trauma when she was a kid... and so a PTSD disorder.
