Are mean and evil parents likely to raise evil minded kids also?

[No regret]

I know of parents who are very shallow and stingy, and now there kids are grown up and become very stingy too.

I know of parents who are mean/evil and now their kids are grown up and also evil and mean.

No that's not always true. One kid from the bunch will be normal.

My parents are stingy.  I'm not.

I think it depends on the individual... although, family is a huge influence.

However, whether we like it or not, we learn from our parents.  My Uncle and Aunty likes to yell at their kids and abuse them emotional.  Therefore, their kids are emotionally unstable, and do not know anger management skills.

My folks reared us right, nothing too bad happened to any of us kids...even though some of us had our own issues/drama. That's life aint it.

But I agree, some people are just greedy and evil-hearted people because of their upbringing.

Elaborate?

[No regret]

I think yes too...monkey see monkey do.  And you can't really teach an old dog new tricks, meaning once they've already beome like that they can't change, it's too hard.

It's not always the case,  but majority of the time yes. Kids learn from the enviornment to which they live and grow up in.

Us kids are lucky it was our mom who raised us and we turned out more like her.  Our dad was never around to help raised us, he was a really big jerk and big time player.  The reason he was never around to help raised us is becuase he was always out cheating with his hooochy mamas.  And he didn't care even if my mom knows about it.

I can say this because all my brothers who have gotten married are very faithful and devoted to their wives unlike how our dad used to be to our mom...for over 15 years now, none of their marriages has ever have any problems of infidelity or cheating.  Still going great...hopefu ll I can do that too when I'm married.
