An interesting question
-
I can see a non-boomer therapist asking this question. I disagree with her in many ways. I'm pretty private about health issues and I detest being around a group of people close to my age and that's ALL THEY FUCKING TALK ABOUT!!! But my immediate family is always in the know about anything going on.
In my view she advocates dumping your problems on someone else. I don't see the point in burdening others with things they can't do anything but worry about. But oversharing seems to be a hallmark of current times.
I do think her assessment of the situation is pretty myopic. She's young enough that she's likely never had any serious health issues. I also think her willingness to call people out on it is arrogant, and quite unbecoming a therapist. One might think she'd have more empathy for differing points of view.

Mrs. Phibes talked me out of posting photos of my colonoscopy on TNCR as a joke.
If I ever have major surgery, you guys are in for a treat.
It's better to give than to receive. I've got photos of that, too, if you're interested.

Tell me why your post just conjured the famous picture of Alex undergoing aversion therapy in A Clockwork Orange?

Most likely the kid doesn’t know about the medical problem because they talk 1-2 times a month.
If they talk more often than that, the kid probably doesn’t know about the problem because they either didn’t listen, or actively ignored the issue. Mom mentions Dad’s having trouble sleeping for months… Then his moments of weakness, then even mentions cardiologist visit and the kid chooses to ignore it…
