I'm curious why you think this. Do you believe the same about other mammals? Do wolves almost universally suffer childhood trauma and abuse? How about apes? If you claim it's just us, what do you hypothesize is the reason?
Does your assertion apply to isolated hunter/gatherer tribes with almost no contact with the rest of the world?
I don't claim to know the answer to this. Certainly it seems like the lives of pre-agrarian people would have been challenging. But on its face it seems wrong to claim that our ancestors would have "universally suffered from severe childhood trauma and abuse".
Could it be your modern viewpoint leads you to label as "abuse" the normal challenges all animals face? I'm curious how you define "abuse".
