Does anyone else feel that our society doesn't want us to grow up, and take responsibilities?
Most of it is due to a lack of a positive Male Role Model in Kids' lives. Young boys aren't mentored. I know, from having my father killed in the troubles, that I tried too hard to impress adults; only to lack the follow-through after graduation.
But, ultimately, we miss the greatest Male Role Model in our society. Jesus. We thought we didn't need faith, and now kids are growing up with no sense of direction.
TBH I have had the opposite experience. Often being pushed into roles prematurely and having to hit the ground running or metaphorically fall on my face. I also get along quite happily as a godless heathen though so I have never seen the need to find a causal link between spirituality and the ruthless demands of living in a capitalist society.
Same for me, on both counts.
Honestly I'd start a coven/emotional support group locally if I had the means, but aside from being sans funds and free time, another issue is being an autist that would require me to be irl social, which I have trouble with lol.
Secretly smiling at coven, because, secretly, that would be nice.
