    People can have trauma from their parents, but still reconcile and have a good relationship later on. It is unfortunate when people assume everyone wants to get away from their parents. I would like independence, but rent prices. My parents lived alongside their parents for a long time, and I have a far better relationship with them than they did.

    I am always grateful for my parents and never take for granted how lucky I am. I had serious psychological debuffs at spawn and quite frankly wouldn’t be here if my parents didn’t care about their children above all else. Everyone deserves the love and assistance I got at a minimum. I don’t know how anyone thinks a world of such unequal opportunities could ever have a fair playing field.

        No. It’s not appropriate to take someone’s joyful conversation about their experiences and shift the focus to you and your past trauma. It’s an incredibly shitty thing to do.

        To be clear; The previous comment was not a response to OP, it’s a response to people that overshadow/intentionally bring down other peoples happiness with their past traumas. Like the humanoid character in the image did.

        An alternative to having lazers shoot from your eyes.

          Correct. That’s why I called it oversharing and rude.

          Calling it victimizing someone is just overreach, especially without significantly more context. Comparing being annoyed at something someone said online that was thoughtless and rude to being a victim of someone is trivializing IMO.
