That’s not necessarily true. There are people who are at their wits end who have tried many other methods. I concede some might use this as the first thing, but for many this could be used as the last thing.
I find it curious so many people are quick to assume the parents must be failing, when I know many people where it is the kids who are failing. No one here knows of a total fuck up who despite the privilege and 2nd chances still manages to screw up his or her life, even though their siblings seem relatively stable? Is this another example of people just assuming everyone is a victim, vs taking some personal responsibility? Though to be clear, I am in no way saying there aren’t parents who fuck things up or make it worse.
