But I'm Pretty Tough.
You're stronger than you think.
Yea maybe it's tall
And climbing looks difficult
But I'm pretty tough.

Apologizing for No Reason: My Learned Habit
When I was growing up, I was taught to always say “sorry.” It was considered polite and a way to avoid getting noticed or punished. I did my best to be a good girl and stay out of trouble. Despite my efforts, the adults around me would still find something wrong and ask me to apologize. I didn’t realize I could stand up for myself because no one taught me that.
