Yes, all kinds of sibling abuse, including verbal abuse, can be confused with sibling rivalry. Unfortunately, many parents are not as concerned as they should be when they see negative behaviors happening between their children.
Interestingly, bullying is even more common (and even more harmful) between siblings than it is on school grounds, but it is rarely discussed as a social problem because people tend to think it's "normal" for brothers and sisters to fight. Some parents refuse to intervene in their children's verbal abuse (or even physical abuse and other forms of bullying) because they think if they get involved their children won't learn to solve their own problems.
This can be a terrible mistake. It's true that children need to learn to resolve difficulties in their sibling relationships, but parents do need to teach them constructive ways to do this. Being present and aware is one of the best things parents can do to help prevent sibling abuse. But they also need to encourage positive interactions to replace the negative ones.
