yes, transgenerational trauma
f.ex. slavery, cycles of abuse
such inherited trauma exposure manifests as poor coping skills, behavioral issues, increased risk of ptsd and depression.
similarly, in my field we talk a lot about ACEs (adverse childhood effects) and their link to mental illness, addiction, "undesired behaviors and outcomes."
