Oh heck.... ArmorPlate isn't THAT tough.

Kinda like an M&M. Hard boundary, but soft inside.

"Can't see the truth from their viewpoint"....

This is something that drives me crazy. When you are gaslit so, so much, for so long, you get pretty defensive about "truth"

I'm left going.... "How can this be truth from my VIEWPOINT??? IT'S JUST TRUE!"

Example:
"Dad, quit bible thumping and just talk and be accountable."

"I don't bible thump, and I've never failed to be accountable, or take you back no matter what you've done to me. Just like in the story of the Prodigal Son. You're always welcomed home."

"Dad.... That is bible thumping, and you haven't accepted any accountability."

"I don't say anything about the bible. Quit putting words in my mouth."
