They just sort of accept that whatever happens must be normal. (startrek.website)

This is why childhood trauma is so damaging. You have nothing to compare to so whatever you experience as a child becomes the foundation of your mind.

Babies scream because whatever they're experiencing is literally the worst thing that's ever happened to them.

Well today I got screamed at because my 18 month old handed me a long string of beads that was wadded into a bunch of tangled knots and I untangled them. I don't know what I was supposed to do but apparently that wasn't it.

Whenever I see a toddler with a cold or the flu, I feel extra bad for them. They're all congested, sneezing, coughing, possibly pinwheeling in the bathroom... a lot of them have never felt worse than that, and it's like, "I'm so sorry. You've got decades more of this to look forward to, little friend"

They're pretty well right about it when they're just born.
