It has always baffled me that people who presumably admire JRRT, could think him so blinded in judgement that they believe that the child he had such a close relationship with was a monster.

Well, there would be historical precedents: Marcus Aurelius the philosopher-emperor positively doted on his son Commodus, even though everyone around them knew the boy was an absolute stinker.
But this of course was *not* the case with JRRT!
