Where some people believe they deserve more—just for being who they are
Have you ever felt like someone expected your care, your time, or your silence—without offering the same?

It teaches that some people believe they are owed more—just for existing.
It disguises control as need, and obligation as care.
And it hides beneath superiority, helplessness, or charm.
