Ok, I was reading something about how you have to humor small children with their various play activities. One of the comments was:
it’s very important to a child’s development to not be shut down by parents and other caregivers
To which someone else replied:
It probably says something about my family that I read that last comment as “not to be shut down by their parents and captors,” doesn’t it?
Now as some of my comments and posts have implied, I didn't have the greatest family life either.
So my *immediate* response to the "captor" bit was this:
Q: Why do children love their parents?
A: Stockholm Syndrome
Yup, sometimes black humor is all you have...
