You're saying your parents were too stupid to not mistreat you.

And they weren't responsible to try and become smarter.

I guess I don't think the reason matters much.

If you're more evolved than them, I'd want you to stay evolved- if you're homo sapiens, don't hang with neanderthal.

Harsh, but important I think.

I literally felt I was more evolved than my parents. (My parents acted dishonestly and vindictively with each other. My parents abused me.) And I still miss having them, or at least, having good parents.

But I couldn't really stomach a relationship with people like them, in the end, it did not matter if they *would* not be kind or if they *could* not be kind, it's all the same.
