What's your take on the statement....?

Question

Favors aren't good therapy.

Answer 1

to allow certain actions, to deny what is going on, and to look the other way instead of halting the action is doing someone a favor and that does not help to meet his/her needs.

Answer 2

Depends on the favor. Help that doesn't require any work from the recipient is often unhelpful in the long run though, because it undermines self-sufficiency. I suspect that's the intended meaning of the statement.

Answer 3

what the question? o.o
no favors arent good for therapy?
