    “Try teaching an impatient person, who undervalues the subject matter, already missed several opportunities to learn about it in formal education settings and who you lack a teacher-student dynamic with…”

    Or, in a way…

      Of course my suggestion wasn’t without limits. Personally I will try to help/teach anyone once. If they continue to not make any effort then neither will I.

        I’m probably the same generally, but I don’t have to be humble about it… IME, majority are capable and would just rather be doing something else. So they get to go dance, I have to learn/practice and then fix their shit/teach them when their done dancing because I care for them as friends, family or just other humans.

        Just frustrating, but I’ll typically offer the help or opportunity to learn, where applicable.
