Quote from MarketMasher:
I think it is about who the focus is on in the mind of the person at the center of the controversy.
What you are describing is a situation where the parent's focus is the child. Like, maybe the parent discovers something about the child they don't like - doing drugs, being gay, whatever.
Some parents try to find a way to deal with the situation because they still love their kids, others disown their kids.
I suppose kids are the closest thing you have to full "ownership" for years. Some parents can't let them go be their own people.
That culture is the man control everything. So much control they brainwash women and men. They brainwash women and men to kill their children. They brainswash men to kill their sister, wife, daughter for some stupid god. So sad they have so much fear of something that is no real.
