    I am so sick of the imperfect parent,hard childhood excuse.
    My mom was a control freak,and a constant nag,my peers ridiculed me for being big ,and developed for my age.
    I've never taken my childhood traumas out on any other living creature.
    That's just an excuse,one I'm sick of hearing.

      Nah.. it isn't an excuse it's an explanation of how he became that way. Trauma's and abuse affect people differently, just because it didn't make you a serial killer doesn't mean how he became that way is an excuse. It's like saying someone being depressed because of the trauma of abuse is just an excuse because another person isn't depressed even tho that person is abused too.

      Eh not really. It's not because it happens also in normal upbringing ( which again the parents and family will always say he had a normal upbringing to protect themselves ), there is a high tendency for it to be in bad upbringing especially violent ones. It is obvious why. A kid who all his life feared the violence from the world tends to want to control/be the one in the same control later
