    Because feeding their depression is the best way to fix the problem.

      If he believes it’s his parents job to fix him that’s about 75% of the problem right there

        There’s a difference between not helping and actively hurting. “Though love” is just bullshit.

          Who says it’s tough love? These are human beings, and they’ve been put in a really frustrating position. Denigrating someone who buys nfts is an appropriate response. Especially if they did it with your money.

            We’re arguing strawman vs strawman. I’m bailing.

              I’m not strawmanning, the OPs screenshot mentions specifically that they were criticizing him for buying NFTs and not having a job

                Honestly, I saw video game coins and though it was some ingame currency. Also, these types might overhear you talking about crypto/ntf and just assume you’ve bought into it.

                Regardless, they aren’t making these jokes for anyone’s benefit but their own. Remove the ntf thing, and this greentext is just anxiety inducing for a lot of introverts.

                  I agree. I feel they’re venting their frustration with a position that anon put them in.

                    These people smile when they say these things. They’re just happy someone has it worse off then them. It’s why people watch trash reality tv.

          Supporting your children well into adulthood and solving mental issues you’re not qualified to address is a parents job?
