    • enjoying things is a sin and if you enjoy something it will be taken from you or used to punish you
    • wanting something is a sin and expressing your desire means you will never get it
    • having emotions is a sin, and expressing your emotions is a sin, unless they are emotions you’re supposed to have
    • disagreeing with an adult is a sin
    • children are property with no rights at all

    Stupid rules like “only refuse once”. You have to refuse once because it’s considered polite to offer, even if they don’t want to, so you have to refuse once. If they actually meant it they can now go “oh, but I insist”, at which point you should accept, otherwise it’s impolite to refuse.

      It’s just like how parent teacher interviews went for me through the entire 13 years I was schooled, “oh he doesn’t ask many questions”, well maybe either you barely taught me about a topic that it’d be embarrassing to ask a question or I know so much about the topic that you should be asking me the questions, rarely anything in between, but they still kept saying I don’t ask questions, as if that really adds value to the way I get educated.

        Also not asking questions could just be because you have nothing to add or say, same thing with general social interactions if I respond with a grunt it probably means I heard you but I ain’t got nothing to add.

    The “Humans don’t require rest outside of sleep” still hurts me to this day.

    As a kid, I would just doodle after a test or long reading and it was fine. I doodle during work after a long project, and coworkers start asking questions.

    If I’m resting while at my desk, I have to pretend like I’m angry at whatever I’m looking at on the screen so nobody bothers me.

    During lunch times, people try to form little parties like “Ah were going to Fajita Hut to get some Sushirittos” and I have to lie because if I tell them I’m taking a nap, they get upset for not “bonding”.
