Telling someone they’re not good enough is not okay

Telling someone they’re not good enough is not okay

I don’t care if you’re joking. I don’t care if you think ‘It will push them to work harder.’ Because it isn’t a joke, and it will not always make someone want to work harder to prove you wrong.

Sometimes they accept it as a fact, then they live with a mindset of “Why try when I’m just going to fail?”

It’s not okay.

This is something my dad never understood, and has asserted that he told me I wasn’t good enough in the hopes that I “would work harder to prove him wrong”

But why would I work harder when the only person whose opinion ever actually had any weight to me told me I wasn’t good enough?

thanks mom!!!!!!!!!!!!!

this shit is all i got growing up and mom never fucking understood how miserable she made me

I used to think it was just how life worked. If you weren’t perfect you were a failure. So I stopped trying, but that hasn’t been working out too great either.
