"I vant to be alone." I would say, as I gestured the closing of my coffin. Too much togetherness can be exhausting.

In actuality, I pictured them as the energy sucks, draining the life out of me. I have to have alone time. I have to recharge my batteries.

For some of us this is a flirtation with torture. It's intrusive at best. Childism at worse. Failure to recognize any person's right to bodily autonomy is wrong, imo.

for the post Ron Obvious.

for the disrespectful imposition in the lives of these developing human persons. Next thing you know they're "encouraged" to pray or join yearbook club when all they really need is to hang out with the art teacher, or to sit alone on the steps, under a tree and write poetry.

Thank you for the post. ♡
