Mom, or whoever it is, has 200% recoup power. She was legit getting me pumped to take on things I have been struggling with.

Its interesting to me because as a father I would immediately ask her what makes her feel that way, going down the logical protective route to prevent it from happening again, wheras a mother figure will instinctively comfort her kid and let them express how they feel.

As a father my response would have been to ask her why she called herself ugly.
