The difference is that they want their kids free. Free of the choice not to be just like them, "deluded and divorced from reality". Except without the harassment and herd abuse they suffered for being the most universally reviled kids in their class.

We have some of these types, writ large, in the news today. High achieving outliers (and some out and out liars, too): Ted Cruz, Tom Cotton, Gym Jordan, Ron Johnson, Tucker Carlson, Josh Hawley, to name a random few. Their former classmates all knew them, famous for their poison personalities, even back in high school.
