      I think it's not quite so cut-and-dried, tbh. I like to think that people *can* change things that bother/hurt/etc. you if you give them the opportunity but at the same time demonstrate the necessity. You obviously can't do this with everyone, because some people will never learn, or will never agree with you and get really defensive if you point out anything wrong. But people really can surprise you if you give them a chance sometimes. Good luck!

      There are tons of reason for a 19 years old to be unhappy. You know that abusive parents exist right? Or abusive partners? Or people in general with negative influence. Or maybe your parents died when you were 16. Or your best friend died. Saying there's no reason for a 19 years old to be unhappy is ignorant

      @@GermanTube123 actually the majority of people I know who are 18 and above who have abusive parents tend to get out of that situation like I did I left with a backpack full of clothes and nothing else with my animals packed in cages and we were that way for about a year until I was able to get up on my feet.

      @@abbyallen1826 The thing is, like i said, that adults, when they pass a certain age, tend to think that teenagers and young adults have no reasons to be unhappy, especially when they live with their parents. Why? Cause they don't have to pay bills or take care of kids? Isn't this a little bit ignorant to say? Are these things the only reasons which cause unhappiness? I think the word unhappiness is the wrong word to use in here. The word responsibility would make much more sense. Teenagers and young adults, who live at their parents and who don't have kids, have less responsibilities. But that doesn't compulsorily mean that they're or should be less unhappy because of it.
      On the other hand, taking responsibility can be the main source of general satisfaction and fulfillment.

      The reason small talk sucks because most of the general population is boring as shit, nobody wants to acknowledge it. Crappy ass person will walk up to you and start talking about the weather, thats all they got.
