How he hurt people with that choice, and he can't handle the idea of harming his family again.

And he thinks he can manage it all this time around.] Well, I've gotta lot to do. I fucked up, we all know this. But I can be better this time. [His quiet expression, which was one of self reflection, is lost to another cocky teasing face.] Hey, at least we know that lessons can literally be beaten into me. That's something that was debated in the past.
