As soon as I press send on this post, I will have already offended several people. Angry reply emails are likely to start filling my inbox.

And it doesn’t have anything to do with the theme of this post.

Or my last post.

Or the one before that where I received 50+ emails of charged up opinions, yet not a single one of those people left a comment publicly (the one below).

In fact, it doesn’t have anything to do with what anyone is saying most of the time.

This is my opinion, and 100% my opinion, but I am of the belief that…

People today have been trained to seek out a reason to be offended.

Because we, as parents, educators, friends, family members, and society in general, are formulating systems that promote sensitivity.

Instead of resilience.
