No…they kind of aren’t, the word you are looking for is selfish, because that’s how we are born.

No one is born remotely thinking about the wellbeing of everyone around you. You are born scared for YOUR safety and latch on to the first person that tries to shield YOU from the world with a hug, the persona that keeps YOU safe. You cry when YOU are hungry, and cry when YOU are scared, not talking into account weather the person feeding is cradling you is hungry or tired.

It’s up to parents weather they succeed or fail to teach you morals, because if they don’t, that you can end up doing cruel things because they make YOU feel safer, or they make YOU feel better, even if the same cannot be said for anyone else.
