“YTA. You posted here, you don’t get to tell us to stop passing judgment just because you didn’t get the answer you wanted. When I was six, I remember my mom yelled at me because during a parent-teacher conference my teacher expressed concern I didn’t always turn in my morning dittos, which were to be done before class officially started. I didn’t turn them in because I didn’t want to turn in incomplete work and was planning to finish them, and THEN turn them in, because that made sense in my 6yo brain. During the conference, my mom found the folder of incomplete dittos in my desk. When she got home, she yelled at me for not doing my work and threw the folder at me. And from that moment on I felt as though my mother’s love, and that of anyone else, was conditional upon my perfect performance. I’m 32. I’ve been in therapy. I’ve forgiven my mom because I recognize she was a young, stressed mother when it happened, but it doesn’t change the fact this has been my paradigm for my entire life and has caused me endless grief, depression, and anxiety. Your daughter will remember this moment forever.”
