    Having “the best parents” would preclude that possibility, though. Your “what-if” is a non-sequitur, it doesn’t follow.

      no it doesn’t.

      plenty of shitty people i know had wonderful parents. and some great people had shitty ones.

      it’s a matter of the choices the person makes.

      your parents don’t determine what choices you make. you do.

      your parents offer you a framework you can accept or reject. and plenty of people reject their parents framework.

      Each person is the result of their genetics, upbringing, friend circle, life experiences etc. Having the best parents doesn’t guarantee you turning out well.

      Also nothing personal but using big words like this when you can express it much simpler, comes off very pretentious.
