Have you met some people who don't have empathy for their own kids ?

My mom. Lol
No but for real.

my father, i feel like i'm the same, if i imagine having kids i just see them as a product of the love of my wife, i don't really care.

Yes, some of my acquaintances!🤔

my mum too, but it went both ways as I had no empathy for her too

A parent didn’t care why their child cut themselves. They were mad that they did it but had no desire to understand the emotional pain.

Yes. They are sociopaths.

My own mother, whatever she shows is just for show.
