What were humans designed for anyway? In caveman times, or pioneer days, children were born to work and be part of the pack for survival. Were were really designed to live this long? If we were being chased by wild animal predators, would we even have time to reflect on our parent’s mistreatment? I’m sure I have been a non-abusive parent of my three boys. If you ask them, they’ll tell you. I don’t do the games I suffer still to this day. I’m not excusing abuse. I’m just saying, all these traits are human nature. What were we created to be is my point?
