This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Having "the best parents" would preclude that possibility, though. Your "what-if" is a non-sequitur, it doesn't follow.
no it doesn't.
plenty of shitty people i know had wonderful parents. and some great people had shitty ones.
it's a matter of the choices the person makes.
your parents don't determine what choices you make. you do.
your parents offer you a framework you can accept or reject. and plenty of people reject their parents framework.
Each person is the result of their genetics, upbringing, friend circle, life experiences etc. Having the best parents doesn't guarantee you turning out well.
Also nothing personal but using big words like this when you can express it much simpler, comes off very pretentious.
