I don't understand how the parenting problem being the root cause of the mental illness dismisses the mental illness. Imagine if the child is sick (eg in pneumonia) it wouldn't dismiss the illness if I explained how the child got

Should there be a renaming here? It's not intentional clickbait, but my brain did catch that title very quickly and proceded as fast as it can to make assumptions. Both titles here[1] are better in my opinion. [1]: https://n
