I feel that the more people are on screens, the more gullible they are becoming
Like with other interpersonal skills (which were actually a challenge for me to teach because I apparently read people weirdly) you need to learn how to read text in a context. The problem there is a lot of parents don't know how to deal with that (reading more fiction would actually help) so are unable to monitor and help teach and let them figure it out themselves or they actively prevent them from gaining experience and exposure in that area which can lead to the same results but from observation the latter generally ends up much worse than the former.
And just in case I need to be explicit about it this is IN ADDITION TO not INSTEAD OF learning normal face to face interpersonal skills as you do actually need that in addition to some critical thinking and analytical skills to be able to sort the crap from the actual.
"chicken panicking"
LoL I'm stealing that, it's much snappier than "like a chicken with its head cut off" XD
random aside, J had to dispatch some roosters earlier in the year and middle's boyfriend was over at the time and came out to observe, and apparently one of the newly beheaded chickens charged at him
(she has a sensitivity I believe)
Aaargh those high pitched loud noises (which need to be like that for a reason) are excruciating. Poor small x_x was she okay after or did she need everything quieter for a while?
And sounds like a good time to make a fire plan and a what-to-do-if-the-smoke-detector-goes-off-unexpectedly-and-there's-no-actual-fire plan if you haven't already XD
Solve the immediate problem first.
Process the relevant feelings later.
Panicking during an emergency is kind of useless x_x
the panic attacks after the emergency has been fully dealt with and they're not any more fun but at least at a better time
