I understand what you’re saying about dysfunctional families, it’s something that is passed down and continues through the years. I have also known people who didn’t have any issues with their children yet they were pushed out of their lives, sometimes it’s caused by their children choosing partners who came from trauma and they bring it to your family, I speak from experience. I don’t have any plan as to what to do except let them know you’re there for them, these things can cause more trauma if they have children of their own, they just paint everyone with the same brush and don’t want to try and make things better, at the end of the day, you just have to stay strong and hope for better times ahead.

All families ha are dysfunctional . All people experie ce trauma. Most parents fail parenting, children don't come with instructions. I appreciate your Thanks for sharing!opinion. Nothing can change the past. The toxic adult children make a conscious decisions to be toxic.

My son was not like that until he married and now he has forgotten his family.. The wife is an only child and entitled, spoiled. They hang out with her parents and friends.
I pray that one day he will see how hurtful he has been to us and change his ways.
