I think there is a big difference between "tough love" and unkindness. I don't think being unkind is ever the best way to encourage someone to improve. Instead be "blunt" in communication/upfront with constructive criticism - which I see as a kindness.

It was not a relief, however, to learn that the sun will expand to be so large as to fully encompass the earth's orbit long before it does eventually explode... In only 5 billion years... Which apparently was a few billion less than 6 year old me planned on living for!

Maybe someone can help me out with this... Every time I look at the scientific literature, it suggests that there is likely a link between acetaminophen use and changes in neural development in fetuses/very young children. Folks on Lemmy seem to feel that there is in fact NO evidence. Am I just looking at the wrong papers?
