I’d take the $10 mil. Childhood seems like it would be a lot less fun if I had to go through it again but now with the jaded mind of a middle aged man.
I can for sure find a way to have fun with ten million dollars though 😉
Yeah my childhood sucked, and knowing I’d have another 12 years of abuse with nobody taking me seriously because I’m a kid? No thanks. I could put $10mil to good use right now.
I’m really sorry to hear that you had to go through that, and you can tell me to fuck right off if you don’t want to think about it, but you got me wondering.
Do you think if you went back, you could use what you know today to prevent/avoid it and see how that changes your life?
I was gonna say the same. If I had to go back the only change I would make is avoiding the cops, school councilors, relatives, and judges I thought I could trust. Every attempt we made to get away from our mom made the beatings worse.
Thanks for sharing. I never went through anything like that, and it really says a lot that even with an adult mind, you wouldn’t know what you could do or want to risk trying. Hope you’re doing well now.
Might be different because my abuse was psychological and covert sexual rather than physical. But for me, the inner boundaries I’ve learned through therapy would make a world of a difference.
Plus, all of my friends would effectively be dead if I took the red pill.
My 30 year-old mind is not going to be able to get along with my friends when they were also six, and no grownups are going to want to be friends with me as a six year-old, besides pedophiles.
It’d be a very lonely few decades, and no amount of stock exchange billions are worth that for me.

Mine sucked too but I’m trans and would kill to have known that information from the getgo rather than finding out in my 20s

If their childhood was anything like mine, the impotence wouldn’t be fixed by knowledge.

$10MM is instant retirement money.
Yep, red pill would be 3rd place after ‘neither’. I don’t need the burden of that knowledge at 6, especially without the power to act on it.

I’m definitely taking the money now.
