{{quote|''"If you seek to aid everyone that suffers in the galaxy, you will only weaken yourself... and weaken them. It is the internal struggles, when fought and won on their own, that yield the strongest rewards. You stole that struggle from them, cheapened it. If you care for others, then dispense with pity and sacrifice and recognize the value in letting them fight their own battles. And when they triumph, they will be even stronger for the victory."''|'''Kreia''', ''[[Knights of the Old Republic]] II''}}
You are in trouble. Big trouble. It is painful—emotionally, physically, or both. You could come to harm, maybe you could even get killed.

* This is one of the basic principles of teaching martial arts in ''[[Kenichi: The Mightiest Disciple]]'': it's repeatedly said that a martial arts mentor must not interfere in his (or her) disciple's fight with a non-master fighter, even when the disciple's life is in danger. However, mentors sometimes ''break'' a sparring (i.e. friendly) match when a disciple is in a serious danger. (It happened once to Takeda and once to Kenichi.)
Line 39 ⟶ 38:
** And the other half of it is that if God ''always'' stepped in to prevent people from being dicks to other people, then there's practically no ability to choose to be a dick. Which is basically pissing all over human free will and forcing us to do what He wants.
** Then there's the median between the two, that God is able to make the bad go away, and He does want the bad to go away—but He ''refuses'' to do so because ''humanity rejected him'' in Eden. He actually does intend to ''eventually'' make the bad go away during Christ's thousand-year reign, but is continuously waiting until the last possible moment so that the maximum amount of people will have a chance to [[Heel Face Turn|turn good]] and be eligible for saving; meanwhile, humanity's screw-ups prove that we need God.

* There are those who consider it a social problem that many parents are so-called "Helicopter Parents" who stunt their children´s growth by "hovering overhead" and solving all their problems for them.▼
** This even applies to ''germs.'' It used to be that kids would play in the dirt, the sand, and [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking|McDonalds ball pits.]] They wouldn't always wash their hands. They would find things on the floor and stick them in their mouths. All this stuff wasn't quite germy enough to make them seriously ill, but it did help them develop the antibodies that lead to a strong immune system in the future. But now, many parents spray everything with Lysol, wipe their kids' hands with antibacterial wipes ten times a day, and don't let them play in even semi-dirty environments. This means that children are exposed to so few germs growing up that when they ''do'' get sick, their immune system is so unfamiliar with germs that it doesn't know what to do.▼

* Klaus Wulfenbach of ''[[Girl Genius]]'' happily dumped almost any sort of problem into his son's lap as a "test", and even made up some when he had no real crisis at hand to shove Gilgamesh into.▼

Line 66 ⟶ 58:
* This is [[Galaxy Angel (video game)|Forte]]'s reasoning on not directly helping [[New Meat|Chitose]]'s inability for flexible thinking. Left alone, she will cause disaster sooner or later, as evidenced in the aftermath of a particular mission where she froze up, never expecting the freighter she rescued was [[The Infiltration|an enemy in disguise]], despite [[Cover Identity Anomaly|nigh-blatant clues]]. However, telling her directly would most likely backfire, as Forte herself puts it:
{{quote|'''Forte''': "If I do tell her 'suspect everything beforehand', she will start suspecting even the regular coffee she drinks, thinking it is poisoned. It's not something you learn from the Academy; she's got to do this on her own."}}

** Averted however in "Downtime" when the team was [[Curb Stomp Battle|curbstomped]] by Clayface and Batman [[Dynamic Entry|arrived]] to [[Big Damn Heroes|save them.]]
* On ''[[Futurama]],'' this is the reason [[God]] says He doesn't interfere in events too much, and why when He does, it's subtle enough that [[Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane|people can't tell for sure if He did anything]].
