[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why can't people be authentic and honest about their feelings, though? There is a LOT we feel but never say -- and maybe life would be a bit easier if we did say it.[/quote] Feelings are important and should be expressed but there not always an accurate reflection of what is going on in a situation. OP likely felt left out of friend groups as a child and was overly triggered by this harmless exchange. Also, this was a perfect opposition to let her kid have feelings, listen to them, process them, and develop resiliency. In other words, take your feelings to your therapists so you don’t pass them down to your children. [/quote]
