It's hard to comprehend that you can be born this sweet innocent baby to a parent who is a monster.....and your life on earth is scarred forever.

[@Sensiblehuman1985]

Many are born monsters with sweet, innocent parents. Nature and nurture are equally powerful.

[@Dalabombana]

Innocent and sweet parents literally don’t exist by the way. By the very nature of being an adult human we are already imperfect. Children do however become what is modelled to them. A narcissist with loving nd boundary driven parents could become functional. Like plants we grow better with nurture. Infancy this is critical. If violence and hate is normalised that’s what you will see and become, or deal with self destructive coping strategies. Hence personality disorders. Attachment disorders. Family trauma is real and we as a society need to deal with it.

Having had been born to terrible parents that did terrible things, I had to learn to take responsibility for how my trauma responses to life and living in the world affect those around me and also learn to stop making excuses and find solutions instead. Letting go of blame is the key to forward motion. The anger and resentment we hold onto for having been abused may feel justified but the fact is those feelings only serve to paralyze you and impede growth.
