The people under whom whom you work for wages don't want the right staircase either. They want big steps all the time.
I imagine this is more for personal achievement.

I need this, in its entirety, printed up on a poster. Love this show, love this sentiment in this context.

I often wonder how differently my life had gone if I didn't have to experience that crap as a child. Beatings, being sworn at, threats of disowning or even death if they're really angry, that stays with you for life
Gives me a LOT of appreciation for good supportive parents

Was told how smart and talented I was all the time — while in the same breathe being told I wasn’t living up to it. I was frequently told by adults in my life to stop wasting my time on whatever kind of art I was doing, that I was wasting my talents and should be drawing/doing insert whatever they value art instead.
The damage that did to my confidence, sense of self, and the amount of anxiety i have over my every move now has significantly effected my ability to thrive and be happy even into my mid 30s. It’s ironic how the adults in my life’s obsession with me “meeting my potential” cause the opposite to happen, they crushed it instead.
We should just support kids in what they are doing and personal growth and stop holding them to our own personal standards. Thanks for making this kid feel accepted and seen. It was clearly very meaningful to them to have your support.

One time my first grade teacher told me I could be first in class( I came second or third but I didn't really care about studying then). She is a religious Muslim and a very pious lady, she had this beautiful aura. From then on I became so interested in studies that I came first in all divisions of my grade. I eventually became a doctor and I owe a major part of my success to this angel. I am 35 now, we still keep in touch.

"Thank you," it said,

How to tell this is an author roleplaying instead of a real story

My brain wants this to say “damn these onions” but my heart knows ninjas do sneak into peoples homes to make them cry.
