Ngl, this post really doesn't send a good message. Is it true for some people? Probably
But my parents pushed me into 3 days of tafe, 2 days of uni, and 2 days of work a week when I was younger. It caused me to crash and burn
It honestly makes people who are already doing a lot feel like they have to do more to make up for what their parents have given up for them, and that's just unhealthy
I had to move away from that mindset, and something like this really wouldn't have helped
Damn, just you look at this goomba. Galoomba even.
My comment is sort of inflammatory for no reason, sorry I made it. Deleting
Not my experience.
