Look at the behavior - Not the emotion.

article image placeholderUploaded by @MHNmaven
It is always good to look at someone's behavior without your emotion in it. And then you can maybe get a different perspective. For example, if someone is paying more attention and doing things more for a person in a certain situation that is not fully related to you and you're wondering, well, I went through that situation. They're not here for me. So why are they there for them now?

They might not be feeling guilty about it. There could be other things in this situation. Like maybe they just had a change of heart. Maybe they just like this person better. There are many options. As you know, not everything is black and white. But I do have to say that I agree with you. If your emotions are clouding your thoughts, you can't see straight

And we are feeling extremely guilty because that ego kind of thing comes in between and we don't want to make it go public about this irrational behavior. We don't want others also to know, because we know it somewhere inside of ourselves that we were not doing something right, but we don't want to admit it before others, that I am guilty from inside

Well, I got to hold my grandson while my daughter went up to support her sister, and I think she's the Godmother, that kind of thing. And he started to cry and needed a change. I got up and left the room. These are things I did as a parent, but not as often as I should have, because I wasn't there as much. I was working so much. So now, because of this, I've kind of left the busy world

Wow, what an honor it is to have you reply to my broadcast. I recently, just for my background, graduated summa cum laude with a BS in psychology. I'm going to be moving on to my master's and I do not want to be a licensed psychologist. I want to change the world's view on mind health. I think it is our number one problem in this world today

You. This is definitely an interesting topic. This is something I have had to hone the skill on actually working with my special needs children, because a lot of them are not verbal, so I have to look at their behavior versus what they do or do not say. And this actually goes for a lot of my special needs families as well, because they are afraid to vocalize how they're feeling or they been shamed into talking about how they feel. So I really enjoyed this

You. Thank you so much for contributing to the discussion. This is fabulous, and I never would have even thought about this towards your teaching and helping of the special needs children and looking to their behavior because a lot of them are nonverbal. This is a brilliant example of how we can learn from these situations in other people's lives that are opening our eyes to see how we should be better because they're limited. It explains how we should actually be in the first place

That's my buddy's third child. And all three of them are gone. And he was responsible for it just in the manipulation. Some of the ones before that was physically abusive too physically abusive to her. And in my mind I'm saying, well, now she might appreciate me now because she seemed that it could be worse than me. No

My stock is up, and I'm not depending on nobody else's analysis to tell me where it's at today. I know what I'm doing, and I'm trying to do the best that I can. But the behavior you are absolutely correct. I just don't understand the behavior at the end of that particular relationship. You got the input, I'll take it? 110%

That's all I can say to you as a friend, because I am not a licensed therapist, so I can't give you an insight on any of this, except for that that you sound like you found the way to get it together and you're living it every day, step by step, and that's what you're supposed to do. That's what we all do. I do that. I am in a learning, living, growing, day by day experience
