[QUOTE="Hobbit, post: 2247, member: 31"] Can vouch for this. I always wanted a proper dad, but I was instead given a piece of shit father who doesn't even associate with me anymore, ever since he found his abo wife. It's definitely affected the way I've grown up and my behaviour. I've seen this among other people my age, too. I'd also like to add that having grown up in an incredibly hard-working family on my mother's side, and seeing my closest relatives still get nowhere despite working their arses off (my mum, maternal grandparents, and even to some extent my full-sister), has possibly influenced my NEET condition. I probably would have roped by now had I not received disabilitybux. Seeing my family struggle to make ends meet despite working constantly has implanted in my mind that working gets you nowhere, and thus you shouldn't do it. I think that makes sense, right? I dunno, I just woke up. But like [USER=1]@Tabula Rasa[/USER] said in the OP, being raised in an environment where you can realise your potential is important. Despite my complaining in this post, I [I]was [/I]raised in an environment, at least at school, where I could harbour and hone my writing skills once my talent was recognised by a local children's author. If it wasn't for my writing skills being recognised by those around me, I don't think I'd have [I]any [/I]positive outlook on life and I'd just be content on rotting for the rest of my life. I now know that, with my writing talents, I have the ability to turn it into a career and (hopefully) make a positive impact on the world, or at least the world of literature. I always did have ambitions to make an impact on the world, negative or positive. Anyhow. Thanks for coming to my TEDtalk. [B]TL;DR: [/B]I can vouch that abuse will always lead to poor behaviour and a disordered life unless proper measures are taken. But also that being raised in a positive environment where you can hone skills and potential talents you may have is extremely important to your outlook on life in general.
