I wasn't meaning to suggest it was a flaw at all, apologies if that is how it came across.It's not a character flaw, it's a lifetime of conditioning.
I spent 2hrs in a ball crying on my bathroom floor because of the shame asking for help caused. This is what I'm up against. There was an entire generation of us trained to be this way (at least, where I'm from). I shudder to think of what my parents generation have been hiding.
I only mention this here, in the hopes that those people with kids may read it and learn something. Maybe the next generation can be better adjusted.
Our pasts certainly mess us up! I don't have children - partly because I didn't want to pass on my "challenges".
