I appreciate your willingness to put this aspect of your lived experience into writing and share it. I hear that’s its not inclusive of every angle or experience—and think the forum can be a really helpful place to find people going through similar experiences. Mostly commenting to support the processing, naming, and sharing of the vast, deep, and sometimes confuddling experience that is community building in a goal-oriented, highly calculating community that is very much in the thick of teenage growing pains.
