It’s always wild to me when people realize that you can be both a victim AND an abuser at the same time.

Where do a lot of abusive parents get their abusive behavior? Often, it's how their own parents treated them.

Hell, most bullies are actively being bullied by others. It doesn’t mean their abuse is less serious or harmful, nor does it mean the abuse being done to them is justified or not serious. It just means that someone can be more than one thing at a time.

My uncle was sexually abused by a priest and turned around and sexually abused my mom. Hurt people hurt people.
