This person is reminded how, as a child, they could not just get love and so they paid with themselves, their body, desires or emotions to earn love, because children have nothing but that. Nothing to pay with but yourself. And that’s monstrous.

People are not born evil

What makes a good parent?

Thirdly, the ability to clearly distinguish between the boundary of your desires and the desires of the child.
