Thanx for bringing up Rosa, I'll use her an example to show
Why Rosa isn't evil and why Bern is evil.
They both have a troubled past, and we know that in both cases their past affects their current behavior.
However Rosa
doesn't feel any real pleasure in tormenting her daughter, in the end
she feels terrible whenever she acts like a bad mama, she just
can't help it.
Bern however
doesn't show any sign of
guilt, she doesn't show any sign of
compassion, she doesn't show any sign of
comprehension, she doesn't show any sign of
repentance, and more importantly
she finds pleasure in what she does, she knows that it's evil and she's perfectly fine with that.
