Somewhat similarly to an “evolutionary tree” with shared ancestors, abused people were often abused themselves. “Breaking the chain” of trauma could also be considered a “mutation”, in that its another form of nature “rolling the dice” to see what pans out. Conversely, people with happy lives often create happy children, perpetuating the behavior.

I don’t understand what this means. For comparison, my friend said he’d had the revelation that all hate is generational trauma, shortly before he got sent to a mental hospital for walking around naked in the park in the winter. I looked up the definition of generational trauma, but tbh I still don’t know what he meant by that. I hope to ask him when gets out.
