    Okay, let me explain what just happened to you:

    I said parents owe their kids undying love, and kids don’t have to love their parents.

    You said “Nuh uh, I don’t have to love my kids if they get a mental illness”

    Or maybe you didn’t. Maybe you actually meant “Nuh uh, my kids owe me love if they get a mental illness”

    Either way, you decided to follow this behaviour up by trying to take the moral high ground. For some arcane reason.

    Now listen, I know an adult with a PD, just one, who says his parents never abused him. And he loves them. And I know two dozen who were abused, and loathe their parents. Let’s try and spot the correlation, shall we?

      No, it went like this:

      You said, “all child personality problems are caused by parents”

      and I said “no they are not, and further, you are an asshole for claiming that”

          I only responded to your one comment. Not a lot of events to mix up the order of.

          Perhaps I responded to your narrowminded and accusatory comment before you sent it?

      Love you yourself say correlation, because there may be one. Causation however is what you imply and that’s not necessarily the case here.
