I'm not an incredibly sensitive person, but there are a few matters that get strong reactions from me. Like a post I added not to long ago about talking back. The way people communicate with one another is a big deal to me. I don't believe in an age limit being put on communication and I believe if you are going to "dish it out" be prepared for what the reaction that will come from it.
If you are going to make ugly comments out of frustration, be prepared for the person they are directed at to get just as flustered right back. If you are wrong, be prepared to have someone point it out. If you make someones private matters public, be prepared when people start knowing your business as well.
When all is said and done don't run away from it. Accept that you got back the attitude you were giving off, be it negative or positive (Obviously the more desired). Over and over again I've been put off by "Adults" who think they can speak or act a certain way towards me because I am a younger adult. This logic is completely flawed.
Respect doesn't have a starting age.If you respect me, I will return it 110%. To use the logic that because a person is older they can disrespect people, humiliate people, or be condescending is complete bull. Especially if they are your family.
I never want to make my daughter feel insignificant or unworthy because of her age. How is it her fault when she was born? I love and respect my daughter as a person, she is her own person not my or anyone elses property. I'm just here to make sure she is well mannered but can stand her ground in life.
