Are you of the opinion that one can mean well even if the same method used for over two decades hasn't worked even once? Also, if the same parents who behave in only this one way, which is very cruel and mean, behave in completely different ways with, for instance, a waiter at a restaurant, how do you explain the clear hypocrisy and the obvious lack of standard in regards to the child, as opposed to a complete stranger, which they are to treat quite well in comparison?
Why is it that "they mean well" when they treat their own kid - their own flesh and blood - like trash, but when it comes to complete strangers, they change their behavior according to infinitely greater standards? Doesn't this mean that they do NOT mean well? Isn't this the absolute definition of NOT meaning well, since the stranger means nothing to them, yet they treat them an infinite amount of times better than they treat the kin of their own bloodline?
