That’s a mindblowing take to me that children eat the marshmallow not because they don’t have discipline, but because these children learned to view the world as cruel and untrustworthy and that actively abandoning long-term thinking is to their advantage. Thanks for sharing, now I’m sad.

Mom told me we’d eventually get that Mercedes.

Never did so I don’t trust any one in my life.

Good / bad I worked my ass off to get my own but it’s made me not like my parents because I don’t trust anything they say. Sad but how it goes
