If anything, changing it now looks like they previously thought strangling 10 year olds was acceptable

It was based off the creator's family when he was a kid, so 1950-1960s, absolutely kids were getting their shit rocked by angry PTSD dad.

Oh yeah. Raised a generation of kids afraid to do anything without immediate, external validation.

Gotta internalize your rewards and goals.
