Ok here's the thing, I'm not good at making a guess on how I would feel about circumstances that I don't think are possible.
I have compassion for people who are raised in bad environments, but everyone is exposed to some sort of positive environment. Yes, it sucks that people are raised seeing this kind of thing as okay. I see it the same as child abuse. You can lean on your past and use it as an excuse up to a certain point, but the moment you harm a child you are no longer a victim. Maybe I am too emotional about it, it's really a difficult subject to not be emotional about.
Even with someone with mental health problems, maybe they can't be blamed if their condition is so severe that they don't realize what they're doing, but victims? I just cannot see it that way.
