Yes that’s what I meant. Bad parents tell you to do something else, while showing you another example. Then they remain unaccountable to their behavior as parents.

Isn’t it kind of true that the systems we as servile people-pleasers have to operate out of are exactly these? The hierarchical status games and alpha-animal tribal dynamics are these. Our leaders who are so might and rich and powerful want
