I don’t think they have real mommy or daddy issues. I think they want mommy and daddy issues. Most urinalists come from very stable families or married to someone who is stably financially. However, they want to be able to overcome something bad because years of popular media has showed them they can’t be hero’s without some past trauma. They don’t have that issue and so they pretend to have it online.

Like white kids trying to pretend 'they grew up in the hood'

I get what you're saying, but that isn't from a stable family. If you're ONLY looking at a financial status point then yes, they were stable. But from an authority point, a lot of them grew up without proper restrictions so are acting out now to have something to push against.

Part of being a good role model is putting restrictions in place to teach when you need to evaluate a situation.
