Most people don’t refuse responsibility.
They avoid the small friction that would build capacity.
This episode looks at how adulthood is quietly postponed, not through chaos or rebellion, but through explanation, softening, and protection from discomfort.
When adjustment is replaced with tone, something subtle happens: expectations drop, trust recalibrates, and weight gets deferred rather than carried.
Nothing disappears.
You still meet the cost, just later and heavier.
