      Yes i do think parental trauma causes kids to turn out better than them or atleast oppose the ethics and morals of their parents . But it is 50/50 tho there will always be a kid who turned out better than his father/mother and one who really leached of their behavior and became a bigger asshole . It all depends on the kind of trauma which i am not gonna dwell into as it may get NSFW.

        I turned out better than my abusive parents but not because they were abusive. I would be a better person without them. And “what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger” is untrue and a horrific message.

          Not at all i what i was implying ifcourse good parents make better kids just saying a bad parent may not necesaarily make a bad kid . For eg would you say you are better or worse than them ?
