I don't think this adds anything to the discussion except for a facetious tone. The OP explained exactly why he doesn't like reading the comments literally in the next breath from what you selectively quoted.


Not being facetious.

I can't see the explanation you say exists.

I suspect that there's a missing qualifier to parent's comment --something like 'from people who haven't lived what I have lived' -- but absent that it sounds like other people's experiences are of no or negative value.


I find it hard to believe that you are unintentionally missing the context behind the original post, but so be it


As parent post observed in a sibling comment back to me, he/she interpreted the original article at about 180 degrees to how I read it.

I'm curious which way you interpreted TFA, as it may inform why you believe I'm missing the point of the parent post.
