It might explain a great deal. It might be a sort of "Perfect Storm" of genetics, epigenetics, and environment that leads to some cases of depression and anxiety disorders. I guess severe, inescapable corporal punishment could lead to the development of learned helplessness and avoidance anxiety reactions. I don't know for sure, but Google did come up with a few hits when I entered these terms.

It is not a matter of blame. It is a matter of understanding. As I see it, to blame is a personal decision.
