Why do people easily fall into the trap of a victim mindset, and is it bad to be stuck in one? How can I avoid it properly? I often feel that the reason I overthink and have deep thoughts is because my father tortured and abandoned my mother and me during my childhood. This question is in relation to the episode #428: Community Member Coaching Sessions: Healing Childhood Wounds to Create a Life of Fulfillment, the clip Childhood Wounds, the episode Why You FEEL LOST In Life & How To Find Your TRUE SELF AGAIN | Marisa Peer & Lewis Howes, the clip Healing Childhood Wounds, episode #105: Coming Home to Your Body with Tami Amanda, and the clip Overcoming Shame.

Is it crazy to think they got together with their problems, didn't fix them, and then had children, putting all their problems and pain on us? Are they really that far gone, thinking their children are responsible for every bad thing happening, or do they genuinely believe it's right to scream at their children?
