"My parents did their best"
I was interested to read this recently, and it got me thinking...
I wonder if this is just a convenient let-off clause.
Is this the same as a drunk getting into a car, and then causing an accident - They cannot say "well I was drunk and did not know what I was doing, so you can't hold it against me!". The drunk is still held accountable for the damage/injury, whether they were competent to drive or not.
If it serves to ignore their toxicity in the present day, dysfunction can and usually will continue.
I think accountability is only a small part of dismantling dysfunction, but without that initial self-introspection, the toxic bubble stays intact.
