The post is wirrten by someone who has experienced this and is understood by those who do. For anyone who has grown up in this sort of abusive situation will immediately recognize what it's saying.

Are you aware of what walking on eggshells actually means? I realize it's been watered down much like the term gaslighting and calling people narcissists but to those whoever have experienced the trauma can feel those words.

And this is why I care… not everyone is super stable/smart/objective/capable of self reflection… this is the irresponsible shit going online that pushes those people the wrong way

This is not an "abusive household" community, the context is not implied

Yes, and for the umpteenth time, I understood the post. I am just complaining about how poorly written it is... which in my opinion, could be dangerous for some people
