They sure are two well adjusted kids....


He has an abusive drunk for a father and she has been virtually isolated her entire life. Yet both seem to be well adjusted polite teenagers.

That doesn't make sense.

Well, not every kid who is abused is a jerk. Some are actually polite and good b/c they are abused at home. Everyone is different.

Hard to say really. I agree with you more though that not every kid is exactly like their parents.

I'm trying to go for an engaging, funny youtube channel so, if you have the time, take a look. Hope you enjoy what you see and if you have any thoughts or criticisms, i'd love to hear them. Thanks in advance. Review is right here- https://youtu.be/zktoFp02xVo

Ok, but how about her? Almost no contact with anyone and yet she seemed very well adjusted.

I don't think it's impossible for her to be well-adjusted. Before she learned her mother was a psycho, she thought she had a terminal illness and that her mom was doing what was best for her. I hear what you're saying, but my sister and I were pretty good kids. We didn't cause our parents any problems so the idea of them being relatively good kids isn't too shocking to me.
