As A Parent, Would You Rather Know Your Child's Secrets or Would You Prefer Not To ?

Just looking to see what most parents think.

For example, your child might have a secret so painful to keep that your child will hurt themselves because of it, and they keep that secret to themselves because if it ever came out, they fear that you may never see them the same way again. Or, would you rather have your child tell you the truth about it and end up regretting it for the rest of their lives if you don't accept it ?

To sum it up basically, would you rather have your child suffer alone or would you rather have your child tell you things that will ruin your image of them ?

Question is.....(and this is how most parents feel btw !)
What on earth could be SO bad that you couldn't tell the people that love you the most ?
Most of us just want our children to be happy and healthy.
That's it !
No great expectations or revelations !

🤔 What if they told you they have sex with animals?

@MartinTheFirst: Well, even THEN i expect after all the revulsion/disgust/anger/anxiety/sadness/whatever, had died down.
They'd still want to try and help.
