Could you tell me what happens when children are abused that makes them not form values as adults?

Neurobiology trauma: The effects of child abuse are profound so the answer to this question is complicated.

Good relationships with parents are critical for normal brain development and function. Childhood experiences shape the structure and function of the brain. Search interpersonal neurobiology.
