"Nowadays, families usually have only one child, at most two, so it's not that obvious. But if we look back to the earlier years when a family had several children, this situation was very common. In a family with two children, one being particularly obedient and the other particularly unruly, it was usually the obedient one that faced major issues upon growing up."
Mrs. Yu's expression hardened, "Qian, what exactly do you mean by this?"
"Obedient children often have more psychological issues; this is a common phenomenon in psychology. At the core of human nature, there is something called the 'instinctual core,' which makes us desire to become independent individuals and be in control of ourselves. But when a child grows up wanting to be an obedient 'good child,' this instinct is suppressed. When they should develop independent thinking, they'll experience conflict with their injured instinctual core."
"Suppressed..." Mrs. Yu began to cry.
