Teenagers raised by monsters are monsters.
Nah, seen plenty monstrous teenagers with decent parents. But with monster parent its more likely monster teenagers.
But maybe your right, i cant see inside homes, maybe all monster teenagers have parental deficiencies.
Actually agree.
IMHO we are entirely the product of our environment and upbringing: initially a blank slate. Deficiency or poison in either produces problems.
Sometime those deficiencies and poisons are parents.
Nah, there are definitely correlation and causation in a lot of cases but there are definitely also kids who are just born evil, as if they're infuriated at the world for their having been born.
They're a rare breed but far too dangerous to write off when discussing things that affect the public.
I fundamentally disagree that someone can be born evil.
Someone can be born a psychopath, but they can still be raised to logically understand the norms of society and mimic them.
There are, however, a couple of generations born with lead poisoning from leaded petrol: that will stop a brain functioning properly.
How can you be so sure?
