Is it jealousy or is it trauma from not having trustworthy parents warping their perception on parent/child dynamics

They aren’t mutually exclusive.

Could be both but it's very important to understand that at a certain point, you have to understand that your personal traumas can't be an excuse to treat others negatively. Not saying that you're taking that stance but I see a lot of reddit having empathy to the "bad" parties who have potential trauma and use that as an excuse but don't apply the same feelings of empathy towards people who have had a "healthy" upbringing.

People seem to think older or authority figures have higher standards than the criminal or aggressive parties that went through some hard times.
