"Paradox of the responsible adult":
advocate or companion says exactly same as patient: former listened to, latter barely acknowledged/too articulate to need help or support.
Suddenly begins to feel like invalidated, ignored, infantilised,or spoken-at by professionals - irrespective of needs, urgency, complexity, education, age, or life experience.

Always the same issue with advocacy and experiencing same 'paradox of the responsible adult', no matter how old or educated.

Hym "That the only 'responsibility' anyone has (to Jordan Peterson) is to just accept their fate, regardless of what it is, and do it with a smile. If you did a the bible it either wouldn't be happening to you or it would but either way it's fine. That's what he means. You know that right? You have a responsibility to not make him do his responsibility, and if he loses his license because of it it's your fault. You have a responsibility... To let people steal from you and then not murder kids over it... You have a responsibility to do whatever whim he reads into the Bible... You have a responsibility to not do what Russell Brand did and slut-out all of the women... You have a responsibility... To get this guy to murder somebody's kid to we can get rid of him without me (Jordan Peterson) looking bad!"
