Just so people know, I looked at the source and the sister was in a very bad car accident and these gifts are likely her way of dealing with her trauma.

honestly…. the fact that they didn’t include this in the original post fucking sucks.

but also… i know these gifts may seem “creepy,” but they’re all really practical (well, aside from the book) and show that she clearly cares about the safety of her loved ones.

This makes me wonder how people view trauma. You see a lot assholes online of shitting on “sjws” for being triggered and not having ~real~ PTSD, but things like this make me wonder if people simply have no idea how to recognize PTSD when it’s not people freaking out over a loud noise.

… “doesn’t … seem traumatized by it at all”

what. the. fuck. how does that not “seem traumatized”.

Her way of dealing with trauma is trying to prevent others’ trauma, and regardless, those are mostly useful gifts the average person doesn’t think of getting until it’s too late. High anxiety runs in my family so they gift the same kinda things. Idk how caring about someone is killing the mood.
