everyone shut up we’re having an outsiders summer (the cold has melted but we’re dripping wet, it’s time to clean up the mess while it’s still light out)

Anyway adults saying “I don’t know isn’t an answer” is part of the reason I learned to lie and bluff so well.

Really though, what was that about? I don’t know is a valid answer. It communicates very clearly that the child cannot answer your question, and therefore maybe needs more help understanding the question/situation. Why do you try and push them to give an answer they don’t have? That stresses them out and it makes them feel like they’re being punished for not knowing something.

i thought i was the only one with an “i don’t know” problem because my parents made it seem it was the strangest and also most horrible thing in the world. i genuinely didn’t know and they got angry and that only blocked my thoughts more which meant i didn’t know the answer to anything else.

Also “I don’t know” is a commonly used sentence for children with ADHD/Autism. We DON’T know why we can’t do our homework. We DON’T know why we can’t eat certain foods sometimes. We DON’T know why we forgot to do a chore. It’s really distressing when you genuinely don’t know and people think you’re just lying or indifferent

I have learned to put a hand to the side of my head and wave it around, or make an exploding motion, while blaming the brain fuzz, the bad brain day, or some other “not working right” brain thing.

It gets just as much info across with much less yelling.

the problem with supernatural is even if you never ever post about it again in your whole life you are fundamentally different from a person who has never watched it. something has changed in you permanently
