"The unwaxed and unpolished truth is that many parents are jealous of their children, resent their presence and their needs, hate the responsibility that children bring, and even hate the children. This sounds harsh, but it is true. Many parents are childish. They have failed to grow up emotionally, and are in competition with their own children. So they hand down their nervousness to their children by failing to give their children and even break... Adult animosity and cruelty take many forms. They often hide behind a mask of good will and kindness." (D. Fink - Psych)
