However, for the sake of clarification:
I was talking to one of our High-Council members, not a professor. It was a few years ago, (was it really?) not a few months. And my comment was more along the lines of “My parents gave us experience with difficult things. They made life “rough” (as we thought as teenagers). I was glad that they didn’t coddle us into thinking that the world was going to welcome us into a resort, rent-free, and do everything for us. They taught us skills for life and we knew what to do when we left home. And when it got hard, it was nothing new. We’d already experienced hard, so it wasn’t any surprise or set-back.”
You said it with much more finesse.
