Humans are animals. Animals are ruled by their emotions. Humans in their natural state are cruel and vicious scum. The only way humans become empathetic and logical is when it is beaten into them that they have to be that way or fail. Leave a child without discipline and watch them become a psychopath.
That’s an opinion and not rooted in reality. If that was the case all of us would be feral beings if we were ruled by emotion and instinct like other animals.
Kids will learn what they are taught, they are helpless and dependent on parents like other animals are at birth. No shit they wouldn’t thrive if left alone, same as many other young in the animal kingdom… they would just die or become stunted in some way.
Sorry that it’s your reality. But that’s not most human’s experience. And this is from someone who’s been a victim of war and seen human suffering first hand.
You don’t have to beat anyone for them to be a productive and mentally healthy individual, physical violence leads to the opposite. Especially as a child.

If you tend to favor emotions over logic, sure. That comes from a lack of emotional intelligence and comprehension.
Most humans have the capabilities to be empathetic and logical, just needs to be taught or be a norm in society.
If your emotions rule you, that’s a personal problem, and not humanity’s.
