I could have gone that direction (probably not quite that far, but who knows?). I can only speak from my experience, but childhood exposure to any kind of trauma can really sour the milk of human kindness, perhaps irreparably in some people. Without consistent exposure to something/someone good and kind, I don't know how one could rise out of some situations without being damaged.

I was outraged when I read the article; heartened when I read the comments (some, there are too many to read them all); & chuckling after about 20 comments ... that most people's 'comon sense & decency'-o-meter works so well is enough to put a smile on anyone's face.Paddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10112119118958158131noreply@blogger.com
