The Jedi failed Anakin Skywalker long before he became Darth Vader.
They took children from their families, taught them to fear attachment, and treated emotion like weakness instead of teaching healthy emotional regulation.
Anakin was never taught how to process grief, fear, or love. He was taught to suppress it all until it exploded.
And the terrifying part?
Star Wars shows this was not just Anakin. Maul suffered the same fate from the opposite side of the Force.
Were the Jedi actually helping these kids… or emotionally breaking them?
