I don't think people do it on purpose. I think it's a defense mechanism that people use to keep the hurt at bay. When you look at happy parent/child relationships on TV or in film or books and you don't see that at all in your relationship with YOUR parents -- I think it hurts, deep down.

You wonder -- why don't my parents love me like that? What's wrong with me?

And even though you know, intellectually, that there's NOTHING wrong with you and that your broken relationship with your parents is ENTIRELY their fault, there's still a small part of you that feels the same way you did as a child -- rejected and unworthy of love.

And so, you close yourself off from those feelings and from empathizing with people who DO have happy relationships with their parents. To protect yourself.
