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:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I don't think anyone knows the green text poster in question, so it could be either honestly. 'You can lead a horse to water' and all of that
Human children aren't horses, and I know being a parent is difficult, and that you might fail. And even if you do fail it might not be your fault, but it is still your responsibility.
You made the kid after all, you put them in the weakest state any human could ever be.
Plenty of people try to convince themselves otherwise, but you didn't give that kid a choice in wether they wanted to live
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
Really detailed narrative?
The only detail necessary is that she has an adult NEET son.
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
