Had to take a break from JP because his own depressive catastrophization was too much of a bias. This last chapter feels like GM is doing the same, his own catastrophization is getting in the way of his really good ideas (imo)

Can attest being raised in the “it takes a village” era and then parenting in the “you have no village era” is very difficult
