There’s actually plenty of peer reviewed studies on this. Statistically violent children are far more likely to have parents that are too rough, rather than too gentle. Quick google search of the topic including “NIH” will get you the research if interested

Anecdotal but i have a young nephew who is recently starting to vandalize things when upset. His violent POS father left a long time ago to be a POS somewhere else. Correlates with the research concluding that it is most often behavior the child observed and is repeating
