Do good parents make bad children and bad parents make good children like rotation?

Hmm, I think it's a case by case basis honestly. As an example, while it is true that most children whom were victims of maltreatment do not become abusive parents themselves, it is also true that such children are prone to becoming bullies, however the studies conducted merely show a strong correlation so we shouldn't take it as definitive fact.

As a contrasting example, we know that children who grew up in a stable household with, let's just say, good Christian values are more likely to engage in volunteer work and philanthropy. However, studies also shown a correlation between the aforemementioned demographic and sexual deviancy, while others show an increased likelihood of porn addiction.

So I personally feel that a blanket conclusion suggesting a relationship between the quality of a person's upbringing and their eventual integrity and morality does not apply in this case.

bad parents always make bad children

good parents can make good children but the world has other plans for them

Nah… but sometimes it feels that way. Good parents can create such a safe place for their kids that their kids never learn struggle… and bad parents can create so much struggle that their kids grow strong from surviving it. It’s about how people respond to what they’re given.

Bad parents in general make bad children but sometimes a bad child is a bad child and grows up to be a bad person no matter their parents.

Speaking as a good child of pretty awesome parents who went to therapy before I was born and used that as part of their parenting process, no. That’s not how it works.

No, good parents make good children who make more good children. Bad children are often the result of generations of dysfunctional families.

Depends, sometimes it's possible, but good people mostly have good children.
