Some do. Many more I would argue don't.

It was only physically and mentally, thank goodness. I had 5 siblings in the same boat and you know what? When dear ol' Dad wasn't around, we had a blast. Such is the resilience of youth. Kids don't need a heck of a lot. I think sometimes we forget that. Heck, what doesn’t kill us makes us stronger (and provides us great material for villains).
