A bit tangential to the comic, but this struck me while reading : as a child I would never have been able to articulate "I feel sad about so and so".
I would just feel the sadness, not really knowing where it came from... or even identify it as sadness. I was subjected to emotion, but it was never something I knew I could dissect and understand. It's only recently, past 30yo, that I started reading into my feelings. I have a lot to catch up on.
