I'm sort of torn over this because I can see how hurtful it is.

I wonder, are fantasies so bad if they put off really hard-to-deal-with mourning and pain?

Sometimes reality really sucks and I know that our culture seems to put a priority over accepting reality as it is, but then again, fantasies serve their purposes too.

LCM probably ethically can't encourage the fantasy, but I wonder what her position is on discouraging it?
