What you'll learn from The Pushback
This scenario focuses on Advocating for yourself — a critical skill inside the broader family domain. You'll face a decision where the instinctive response is often the wrong one. After you make your choice, you'll see exactly what happened in the other person's head and why it mattered. The scenario is part of The Comparison, a full interactive story inside the Sibling Survival quest.
