      As someone who had to endure shit parents as a child: They don’t.

      They will rather go win gold in mental gymnastics than to allow any form of self-awareness from developing, too.

          Jokes on them, I never developed the emotional capacity needed to be able to be emotionally blackmailed, thanks to their shit parenting.
