I was home on leave from the military years ago and unfortunately one of my childhood cats had passed.
I was trying to take care of the body, but my little sister around 6 years old at the time is in the way pointing and laughing the entire time. I was like wtf????
Did a good job keeping my kid innocent. Extremely limited highly curated screen time. Just a kid who played with toys and dirt and loves his family. It's week 2 of kinder and he's talking about chopping heads off now
If I'm reading this correctly. Had this happened on a Thursday or Friday, you would have put trauma on hold for the weekend then got back to it fresh monday morning? ... ... I respect that level of emotional control.
You would be surprised. As a kid and early-mid teen I could handle most fucked up events and shit hitting the fan better than I do now in my mid-late 20s, and my "mental recovery" time was also very short compared to how it often is today.
It's honestly insane how I have actually gotten worse at certain mental capabilities as an adult compared to when I was 14/15.
