Being naive is defined as “lacking experience, wisdom, or judgment.” Do you always assume the best of people rather than bracing for potential disaster? Or believe what others say at face value? Or maybe think that government organizations have your best interests at heart? The best way to correct naïveté is to learn to see below the surface. For e...
Those who have been seriously sheltered haven’t necessarily developed the ability to regulate their own emotions well, and they might not behave in a manner suitable to their age. For example, people who have spent their entire lives solely with extended family members may not know how to behave around strangers. They might be overly comfortable to...
Parents who overprotect their children give their kids the sense that horrible dangers lurk around every corner. As a result, those kids grow into super-anxious, fretful adults. They’ll freak out about the potential harm they might experience. Usually, they’ll hold back from doing all kinds of things they might otherwise enjoy. This sense of danger...
If you’ve been raised in a very sheltered environment, you might experience social awkwardness or anxiety. You may default to thoughts about certain racial stereotypes if you meet people outside of your own culture, or you might not know how to behave around people of different social echelons. The table etiquette you’d use with a Duke or foreign a...
If you’ve been sheltered all your life, you might miss out on certain pop culture references that others mention regularly. That’s not necessarily a bad thing, as many of these references are usually inane. No one has seen or listened to all the films, TV programs, or music out there. Many people were exposed to catchphrases as they matured and soc...
Many people who had a sheltered childhood/adolescence had exposure to unpleasant or difficult situations kept to a minimum. For example, parents might have kept you away from family funerals, so you didn’t have to cope with the reality of death yet. Or they prevented you from watching any TV shows or films that had violence, sexuality, etc. While t...
Many people who have been sheltered have learned to obey their older family members, teachers, and clergy, often without hesitation. They’re taught to believe that they can’t make life decisions for themselves simply because they haven’t had enough life experience already to do so. It’s common for those who grew up in very religious communities to ...
This goes along with the previous sign. It isn’t just deferring to other people regarding life experience, but feeling like you need to have “permission” to do the things you want to do. This behavior is common when people had parents who micro-managed them for most of their lives. Their parents decided what they could or couldn’t eat, drink, wear,...
Do you try to do new things on your own when they need doing? Or do you ask for help by default before making an attempt? This behavior often happens when people fear making mistakes – for fear of punishment or mockery. Did your parents give you hell if you got poor grades in school? Or did they prevent you from learning life skills like cooking be...
Sheltered people can go either way when it comes to risk. Those afraid of negative judgment (as mentioned above) often try to avoid risk whenever possible. In contrast, those who want to “stick it to” whoever smothered them in their childhood or adolescence might take unnecessary risks as a means of defiance. Both can be good in the right circumsta...
