you can make the same argument (in reverse) about being rich.

it is like saying: ohhh my mommy was so bad to me and now i have issues, ohhh my mommy was so good to me and now i have issues.

victim mentality

Not all consequences are the same, even if the initial conditions are of the same-type; not all people who acknowledge negative consequences think of themselves as victims. Saying one is aware that certain conditions and circumstances in childhood tend to cause certain negative behaviors in adulthood is helpful information. Dismissing it as having a victim mentality is unhelpful.

I think you should try and understand the definition of 'victim mentality' a little better.

There's great power in understanding where you came from, and how that affects your behavior today.
