    Why would I unload my emotional baggage on the people who caused it in the first place? That just sounds like more baggage.

    Edit: This was supposed to be a joke. You can stop pointing out my complex trauma, thank you.

      This is exactly the kind of thing that comes from emotional isolation and a wrecked self-esteem and a lack of proper, loving people close to you in life.

      In healthy environments, people who love each other share with each other a lot of things without it feeling like a burden to anyone and they support each other and know how to just listen and be available. And no, I don’t know what that’s like either, I am just sharing the legends and stories.

      Because it could be used as a teaching moment.

      A good parent might sometimes give their child tasks they aren’t ready to handle and let them make a mistake on purpose in order to teach them right from wrong.

      A parent will simply let them persist in their mistake because it’s easier than making the mistake effort to correct them.
