| Yes too much pressure can backfire on an already overloaded brain. I was forced to do/behave everything that the world expects me to. A child needs to know its ok to be different in order to get a sense of self. |

| I find sarcasm (not the subtle type) interesting and funny but to most people sarcasm = rudeness. And everything else that's been mentioned in this thread, also giving too much information is usually a problem. |

Good decision OP
I did it 6 months ago but not with the whole family. I personally find this thread very supportive, didn't know there were quite a few of you who had the same experience. Should have done it a long time ago but still feels guilty sometimes. It was the right thing to do |
