The genetic/epigenetic effects of intergenerational trauma are on super shaky ground. The effects they have found are basically if you break an individual through trauma that can cause them to sometimes be a shittier parent. For instance if you have anger issues or alcoholism from ptsd that will definitely hamper ability to raise a child. But there are also a lot of confounds in the literature which probably exaggerate this effect. (basically some of the ability to recover from and avoid trauma is genetic, and therefore passed down)
