    My instinct would be to think that they do that too, but at a much slower speed, and are less aware of how they got there. So when you explain a train of thought clearly the speed which u topic switched and the number of times it happened feels overwhelming to them. We also tend to intellectualize a lot of stuff and others do not, so they have probably never internally studied how their own thoughts connect before, so it would seem forieng when explained.

    But I’m speaking from instinct here, no evidence.








  • It is a tough situation, because yes it makes complete sense to say “I cant stop them, but I can ensure their safety” since we know abstinence is a pipe dream, but its also not fair to say your ideas on how to parent supersede another parents. Hell this could even be a teaching moment for your child by explaining this in full candor with them so they understand your concerns with the request and why you made the decision you made, it can be helpful for them to understand that just because other people do things in a way you don’t agree with, doesn’t give you the right to force your ways on them, a lesson in desperate need across the world lately.
