not sure which part I find more baffling, the “some days are hard” (are we expected to feel bad for OP just because little kids act out when you try to train them as if they were dogs?) or the “when I see how much y’all love your lives” (is the presumption that if we’re well-adjusted as young adults then we must have undergone ABA ourselves?)
