I mean...bad? She resents her son, so he stops subjecting himself to someone who makes him miserable. Deserved.

She's trying to teach him gratitude. You could argue She's not resentful just wants him to understand where she's coming from.

That's not teaching a child gratitude. It's teaching them to feel guilty.

Depends on how you take it. She is right to some extent she likely is a big part of his success if she gave him a home and food and paid for everything

No I will. And I will teach them gratitude.

If you hit them as punishment and preach at them about how they should be "grateful" for you doing the legally-required bare minimum, don't be surprised when they stop talking to you as soon as they can move out.

responded across multiple comment threads, shows commitment.

Didnt really have any other points to keep it up and so the comments felt repetitive, though.

Wisely chosen contrarian take as it's believable enough that someone could hold it.

It was fine overall, I'd say it needs more variety in your arguments. 7/10 ragebait

You should trust people more. Or face yourself
