it feels so in character for jjk, like he wasn't some angelic kid who suddenly was traumatised and turned out like this, his fieriness has always been there but those around him cultivated it into an icy hot bonfire.
(also telling your kid to j go your separate ways???? WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT)
eta: no amount of a person's suffering as a child can redeem their actions as an adult. we can use their childhood as a lens to look through and understand *why* they're doing what they're doing. JJK could've been trafficked and his actions to Dan would've still been unacceptable. our history explains, it doesn't excuse. our actions now and going forward form the basis for reconciliation and repair.
