[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Please please stop with the "oh she's an abuser well she must've been abused herself". If this sort of thinking were true, there would be an impossibly large number of abusers. While it's certainly true that some abusers were abused themselves, the vast majority were not.

In this study, just 4.6% of abused children were found to become abusers as adults.

Another 2019 study finds similarly

Your stat shows that a small number of abused children grow up to be abused but that’s not what people are saying. No one says all or even most abused children grow up to be abusers.

What PP are saying is that a lot of people who abuse children where themselves abused as children. And I don’t think that’s an excuse, just an explanation.[/quote]
