Fear is such an interesting form of manipulation.

I wasn’t raised with religion and I am somewhat agnostic/atheist. The threat of hell does not permeate me.

But the use of fear in everyday life is fascinating.

One of the starkest messages I receive is people who don’t accept or believe a folk can lead a content life without children. When the childfree are told “you will regret not having children” this is a blatant fear tactic. I’m reality science shows that people rarely do hold this regret.

I’m not too sure what my fears are. Have you any good techniques to figure these out?
