This episode was driven and motivated by a video from The School of Life called How To Test Emotional Maturity.

It is evident in my life that I am not emotionally mature in any way. This is due to the fact I was brought up to raise my mother in her time of need. I come to the conclusion that even if I had a different parent, it would be the same result simply because my father also struggled with his own parental issues and emotional immaturity.

It isn't on them to make me better, much like it isn't my friends' place to make me feel better. When I watched the video I did flinch a bit as these replies are my standard operating procedure. I know I can't alter my attitude, but I know I can learn more and apply it to my life.
