<p>"I’ve found that social experiences are far more important than experiences with parents when it comes to lessons of restraint, reciprocality, responsibility, and such. (as long as the child doesn’t have schizoid or antisocial personality disorder). I’ve been conditioned to act somewhat machiavellian towards my parents (but social experiences are the types of experiences that make me feel bad about it).</p>
<p>[and also experiences where you’re not valued solely based on your intelligence\quirkiness\etc. hard to say. children may still learn lessons when their parents let them get away with everything [as long as their social environment doesn’t allow them to get away with everything].</p>
<p>[but what if their school and peers let them get away with everything ALONG WITH THAT? Then that could be problematic]"</p>
<p>in which case i might actually be harmful to someone’s development right now… =/ i mean i’d forgive him however sadistic he becomes to me… =/</p>
