Thanks.”

im a singer/songwriter and if someone says to me, your stuff is rubbish and you should give up, I think, gosh, you obviously have issues!!! But if someone says I appreciate what you’re trying to do but I’m not into it, or, I like what you did but perhaps try it with less reverb, or more backing or something then that’s useful. People shouldn’t criticise to be hurtful, it should be a means to help someone step up, not knock them back.
I work within the autistic spectrum and it’s not helpful to tell an ASD child how badly they are doing, without making it sound that they can do better in a positive way. We all need to feel we can do better and not be made to feel we’ve failed, don’t we 🙂
