Is it relevant how old you were? How long it took you to lose the scrund? Was your mum teasing you? Or did she have the scrund as well? |

hmm...ethics relevant? Good/bad people, or what makes them good or bad? Choices relevant? Free will? Some action you took relevant? Food relevant? Something like my mother's favorite at mealtimes, "Finish your food, there's kids starving in (China, India, whatever, she kept changing it) who'd be grateful for what you have!" |

No need to be confused, here's a recap: When I was about 4 years old, my mum told me something which I took seriously (and which she probably wanted me to take seriously). The statement was very general and referred to people in general, but it's obvious that it was targeted at me. HINT: It has to do with a certain behaviour of mine. |

Was it a habit she wanted stopped? Like biting your fingernails? Chewing your hair? Throwing tantrums? Not sharing toys? Were you not cleaning up your toys after you played with them, and she wanted you to? Something like that? Was it something about how you interacted with friends or relatives? With your mom and dad? Aunts and uncles? Grandparents? Cousins? |

so it's something like not cleaning up your toys...was it more to do with toys, or not cleaning something up? No, it has nothing to do with toys or cleaning up. The "yesish" just meant that it's a habit that my mum found quite annoying. It's more related to interacting with people |

so she said "Did you know that___" and the "___" made you afraid? nervous? worried? about speaking in public? or speaking to strangers? talking when you were out somewhere with her? did you talk about inappropriate things? giving out your name? address? phone number? to random people? |

so she said "Did you know that___" and the "___" made you afraid? nervous? worried? all three of them about speaking in public? this, but not only in public or speaking to strangers? this too talking when you were out somewhere with her? this too... but also just talking to family members etc did you talk about inappropriate things? that too, see next answers giving out your name? address? phone number? to random people? Yes. I can't remember if I knew my address and phone number by heart back then, but I would approach random strangers and tell them my name, my mum's shoe size, where my granny does her grocery shopping etc. But the giving out information part is not so relevant, it's just the... quantity of talking |

Did she say something like people can only spend a certain amount of time talking in their entire life and if you talked too much while being young, you can no longer talk when you're older because you've already used up that amount prematurely? |

Here comes the ********SPOILER******** When I was a child, I used to talk very much, even to complete strangers. To stop this, my mum told me that the number of words you can use in your life is limited (=nowinylil). I was, of course, shocked and probably stopped talking for the next two weeks (; |
