Scenario

When well-meaning help doesn't meet your actual needs

During shiva people kept bringing food but I'm diabetic and everything was cake and bagels and I felt ungrateful complaining about kindness when I'm supposed to be focused on mourning.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Care that misses its mark can create additional burden disguised as blessing.
