Nope, nonsense, never ever seen it.

I had a neighbor with 3 daughters and a son. The son and one of the
daughters were twins. The parents and the daughters were nice people;
polite, friendly, religious. Excellent neighbors in every way. The
son? At his 14th birthday he informed his parents that he was now an
"adult" and would no longer listen to or obey his parents. He was
into drugs & alcohol, running with a "bad crowd". In short, a thug.
At the age of 16, the son attacked my wife and beat her almost to
death. His reason? he was "mad at the world" and took it out on the
first person he saw, my wife. He was recently paroled after serving 8
years for the assault. Did these parents do "everything" right with
the daughters, and "everything" wrong with the son?
