That’s toxic positivity, which is what Goins 34 when she was looking for a bit of mercy about the 35 of parenting young children. Even if you’re trying to 36 someone, ignoring someone’s tough experiences can leave them feeling that they should 37 negative feelings in the future. 38 trying to find a positive spin, we are supposed to use accepting and comprehensive words.
