The solution isn’t “don’t throw art away” the solution is “make sure my kids don’t see it” IMO because I have those same memories but also know I cant

“I don’t feel any obligation to tip toe around a someone’s bad behavior because it is rooted in a bad memory for them.” I needed that.

I don't have that memory but I do have bins and bins and bins of papers from my childhood that I'm throwing out at 33... So it goes either way

My 16 year old told me that he cried when I left him in kindergarten. I said I’m so sorry. Do you remember telling me to leave and pushing me out? 💕

I cant imagine never throwing my kids' work away. I just had my 4th. We have mountains of artwork and thats the "good" stuff.

my instinct is that the OC's trauma isn't so much about the art in the 🗑️as it is how the mother would have reacted if OC had expressed hurt feelins

Exactly! My mom tossed out the first and only thing I’d ever won at a county fair. Still salty, but I also chuck my kids old drawings 😅

I had a similar experience w/ a teacher. It hurt me 100% - but even as I child I knew it wasn't her fault. She didn't treasure what I did & that's OK.

My mom kept EVERYTHING, even yukky things like vaccine scabs to umbilical cord remains. I was ashamed she did, including my art

imo people need to get less comfortable in other people’s comments! it isn’t friendship or therapy! it’s unfair to expect things like this from you

I grew up watching my mom keep Xmas cards for a few months and then throw them away. I think this helped me understand she’d do the same with my art

It also sounds like a learning opportunity for them. It was a painful memory but maybe as an adult can see it was not rooted in malice and release

Children don’t have thought processes like adults. Letting them see you throw away their shit is shitty.

we have boxes that we keep for them. they choose what goes in there to a certain degree. THEY throw away the rest they don't care about.

I've learned as a parent, I have many reasons to apologize to my 3 ND boys, now adults. I actually ask them if I did wrong

A traumatic memory of a parent throwing away artwork might have been part of a larger pattern of abuse, or it could just be a single episode that ..

This. People don't get to use their trauma as a kudgel on other people.
