This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I'm not comparing children to horses, it's a proverb. You've created a really detailed narrative around a green text (meme) that I don't really feel like playing along with.

PS; I am not the mother of this green text, not sure why you're framing it like that

Sure, let's expand on your proverb, and use it as a methaphor. The parents are responsible for the horse needing to drink in the first place. Even though they can't make them drink, it is still their responsibility. When it doesn't drink, that's on them: they caused the situation leading to that failure

Really detailed narrative?

The only detail necessary is that she has an adult NEET son.
