@nw82 This is true! Stressors are also a huge factor.
Parenting is a big part in my example specifically, though. The mom of the hitter spanks, does time outs very liberally, makes the kid apologize before he is ready, etc. I have no doubt she loves him, but she had a poor example growing up. She is doing so much better for her kids than her parents did for her, but you still hate to see it.
The other parent is much more gentle and respectful, and at the same time has better boundaries.
