But I realized people will push you over and walk on you if you're either too soft or too kind, and for me it started with standing up for my friends in high school when they were getting bullied. And you teaching your niece instead of drawing for her directly? Wisest choice: 1. She still has to put in the effort herself 2. She's learning something that might be an interest or useful to her 3. Bonding time, no matter how small, matters.
You're a good aunt to her =w=
And yeah! She gets sad and can be super emotional in certain moments... A lot of the time she lacks self-confidence... But I admire her ability to compartmentalize the bad and focus on the good, which ends up with her having fun in the stream instead of worrying about looming stuff. I wish the best for her and hope to see her live and streaming again soon.
