Pain- My mom, me, dd never cry. As Mom lay dieing of painful cancer, doctor expressed concern over her high pain level. At 3 Y.O. DD would not cry at immunization needles, causing nurses to gather round watching her. When she dislocated her shoulder and they snapped it back (OW!!!)
She chose to laugh, would not cry. Emotional stuff!!! We're all bawlers. Can make each other cry if we have tears in our eyes. Guess we think we're tough, but we're not so.
