Did Maeglin had a chance? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Very nice points about environment and freedom to control one's future. However, in addition to all these, I personally believe that, like Feanor and his sons, Maeglin and Eol were brilliant but probably had a few screws loose; perhaps as the result of Morgoth determined to make Elves miserable.(?) I'm not saying that anyone should blame all their problems on mental illness, but the Elves I mentioned above seemed a little wacked out to me. Just speculation, but an interesting plausibility.
