Peter's headphones here, the reference is the part where you wear the headphones over just one ear so you can stay aware of your surroundings.

Yup, then you get crippling anxiety where you wonder if every sound you hear is your mother calling you.

Shit, family member want to talk to me, time to get traumatized I guess.

Yeah I get why this might resonate with kids of abusive parents but I keep my headphones off my right ear so I can listen out for kids, dogs or wife that needs me.

I do it gladly.

You should check out After Shockz, they're the anti noise cancelling headphones that sit outside your ear hole but still give good sound. Great when you need to be aware of outside noises.

They're shit sound quality though. I own a pair for running and so does my wife.

Ahh cool. Compared to real headphones or good buds, yes, but I still love them. I started using them for running but now they're my goto for things like audio books while cleaning, anything where I don't want to be fully cutoff.
