[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I don’t think that PP was trying to judge but rather to say that there can be positives. [/b] I see both sides of this. I also, as a child, spent months living with a completely senile grandparent. There was no violence but it was scary, unpredictable and very isolating. Two things can be true: I was too young and should not have had this exposure AND I learned a great deal from my mother’s sacrifice. I am still in awe of what she did and gave up to do the right thing (there was no option of a nice medical facility). I feel like I gained something morally but lost something psychologically, if that makes sense. [/quote] That is not what they said. They specifically said "that is what good people do"--not "there can be positives." She was explicitly saying that if you do not subject your children to the violence, sexual aggression, coprophagia (I had to look it up!), etc. that the other pp detailed, you are in fact not "a good person."[/quote]
