It's only recently that I've remembered that this is a thing. I don't really understand it - I understand it's supposed to be some sort of bonding?
For instance, the other day my floormate told me her brothers embrass her and she embrasses them because "they're family". I was like "lol okay whatever you guys want I guess." but I really don't get it? She told my mum (who came to visit) that she gets to do that to me because she's my mother?
Forgive me, but I see that as rude? My mother in question was talking about my childhoos, which she knows I don't like (mainly because life sucked and I'd rather disconnect from the fact I was a kid yada yada) and I didn't say anything, but I really do hate it?
Like why is embarassing family members a thing? Why do you purposely go out of your way to embrass people you love when they're trying to be social? (Or in some cases just happen to be social?) Or maybe it's them explaining why they're talking about childhood experiences or etc?
Iuno if I care about others doing it, just towards me is when I get irked. And if I say something I get told to lighten up, so I guess I don't care.
Does anybody do this? Or not understand it? I wanna know everybodys thoughts on the topic ^^;
