I don't think it's about some 'emotional wound'
I struggle with that excuse for destructive manipulative behaviour.

My mother was a horror and she had no 'emotional wound'. Really, she didn't.

Plenty of people are wounded but still want the best for their children and love them unconditionally. To expect a child to give up their life so you can use them is abuse.
Like the 'feeder' parent who supplies thier kiddult 'infant' with food making them so obese they cannot grow up and leave the house. Kept as a helpless infantilised baby. Forever.
