        Different for a lot of people and no shame in it; I wish people who never had to deal with such abusive environments would stop reacting and judging without knowing anything about the subject or someone else’s lived experience here.

          True. I also realized I shouldn’t have said that. I don’t how Large Cane Toad’s life or if trauma was involved. Writing “you are lucky” was very tactless.

            Oh, thank you, I wasn’t necessarily trying to reprimand or shame you, it’s just that people, especially boomers and GenXers have a tendency to do this thing where, if someone suffered and they learn it informs their actions, they do the whole “Well, lol, I suffered twice and learned faster than you before your age, what are you doing, bro?” or some other nonsensical bile. Honestly, even Millennials do this a lot, I have noticed lately.

            I wasn’t saying that that was what you were doing.

            Just to be clear here haha 😅
