Of course. How is it so hard to understand?

Will you send a child to prison for crimes committed by their parents if the parents ended up dead by the time found guilty?



Pride or shame is by definition a feeling not legal culpability. A feeling.

Human brains seem wired to have strong feelings about their kin or tribe. So, yes, I would think having neutral feelings about your parents would be a hard thing to understand for most people.
