Before that he was tormenting and made Gein live a hell on earth. Even though George Gein’s personality may not have been fully betrayed throughout Ed’s life due to his alcoholism, he affected Ed in ways he may not have been fully aware of. According to Dr. Michael Windle, " from prenatal influences leading to learning and memory problems, to vulnerabilities in behavioral control and aggression in adulthood, a significant number of COAs exhibit psychological and/or interpersonal difficulties. In fact, COAs can be differentiated from nondistressed and psychiatric comparison groups in regard to such factors as personality characteristics, depressive symptomatology, and educational attainments.” George’s alcohol abuse could have given Ed a lot more aggression especially when he started to grow up and realize the type of person his father really was.
