I’m sure there is something to this….maybe if an abusive parent saw someone else abusing a child, they would be more angry at the other abuser. But then again, maybe not. Maybe they would conjure up an excuse for other parents to beat their child. This experiment seems a bit inconclusive on the morality point. Giving someone a challenging task is hardly as immoral as other cruel acts.
