Messing up your kid's life is a temporary bump? Plenty of dysfunctional/traumatised families out there, just look around...

Every parent “messes” up their kids life, its a matter of degree. Its part of the human experience.
I think I see what you mean in terms of everyone having life difficulties. But I disagree because of cases where bad childhood environment causes/exacerbates significant issues with kids' wellbeing, such as mental health disorders. This is not something that everyone experiences as "part of life" right?
