Why is it in general kids abused by their abusive parents become abusive themselves later in future.
It isn't really true, even in general, but it happens often enough to have people convinced that this is a fact. Kids who are abused tend to decide early in life if their abuse is normal or if it is indeed abuse. The kids who decide it is indeed abuse don't go on to abuse others, but the kids who decide it is normal, might.
I was abused beyond anything an "unabused" person could ever tolerate to even hear about. I was told by my therapist( as a child) that I would grow up to abuse my own children; these therapists were wrong, and it gave me extreme pleasure to prove this to them.
I raised 2 generations of my children (my own and my grandchildren), I was a foster mother for 10 years, and I ran a daycare that specialized in high needs infants and children. I have never abused another person or animal in my entire life. So when I tell you this is the wrong assumption, I am telling you the truth.

@sahi81 denial of what?? I raised two kids who are now in their 40s, hug them and love them often, never abused them or came close...never abused my wife of 42 years 9she passed away three years ago)--you are trying to generalize about things without facts...do not lump everyone together in your streaotype

unaddressed emotions they have, expressing their emotions the only way they know how to. i wanna say it’s learned behavior but i feel like that takes away from the responsibility the child has in this. everything in life is learned behavior, i would say that some people just care enough to not end up like their parents. they’ve done more soul work than the others
