We are saying the same thing. It is specific to the client. What I was responding to was the idea that a therapist should not talk about their kids, as if it's obviously a bad idea for most people. I sometimes read a similar admonition here when someone is upset by a therapist's action, and they think everyone would be upset so that it should be a thing that no therapist should do (such as between session contact). It's limiting to suggest it's an across the board thing to not share. This forum can be an echo chamber at times, as though there is one type of client or way to do things. I was just pointing out a difference.
