Eh, I think it really depends on the specific shit and the underlying personality.
Some people had to walk barefoot in the snow and devote their lives to giving kids shoes, and some people start saying “it made me who I am, and I’m a good person, therefore you must experience frozen toes to be a good person.” And some people end up somewhere in between thinking that it’s okay if kids have shoes in the snow, but feeling resentment when the kids don’t express explicit gratitude for the shoes, or start putting frivolous little decorations on them.
There’s things in my life history (like bullying) that I wouldn’t wish on anyone in even the smallest degree, and there’s other things (like lack of trigger warnings) where I have to actively resist the urge to go “but I survived without them, therefore they must be a decadent luxury for the weak.”
