    Nah, I’d like to do this because my parents didn’t do it the right way the first time around.

    It’s amazing how two otherwise generally intelligent well meaning loving parents can completely miss the fucking point so goddamn hard…

      Obviously not universal, but generally parental strictness/harshness/unfairness is them trying to spare their children undue suffering from mistakes similar to those the parents themselves made in their youth.
