      “other people’s feelings are not my responsibility” can be used to justify treating others badly. As in, I get to say whatever I want, and if you don’t like what I say about you, that’s entirely your problem.

        That kinda muddles up feelings, behaviours and reactions into a mix there…

        I am responsible for my actions since I control them.

        I am responsible for my intentions because I choose them.

        I am not responsible for other People’s feelings or reactions because I can not control them.

        If something I’m responsible for causes harm then I choose to make amends.
