[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have you wanted the show Adolescence on Netflix?  I assume that's where this is coming from.

I think that was a very specific situation, and [b]nothing the parents did or didn't do caused it.  They should have better addressed his anger and control; but I don't believe from that fictionalized case that being an incel was caused by his parents.[/b]

For my son's, they see a respectful household. We respect all people and their boundaries. More rights for women and equality for all races, genders, sexual orientations does not mean less rights for straight, biological males. That respect goes both ways. They see kindness in action and verbalized. [/quote]

I disagree.  They shouldn't have permitted him to have a computer in his room, and they should have supported his interest in art with drawing classes, visits to museums, etc.  instead, his dad took him to soccer and boxing, and they left him alone in his room on the Internet until 1AM.

Basically they disregarded who he was and what his interests were.

The results might have been the same but they failed in those respects IMO.[/quote]
