Shying away from problems


Shying away from problems, or "not wanting to talk about them" (indefinitely) does not resolve problems. That is simply playing the Ostrich. 

"According to African folklore, an ostrich prefers to close its eyes and hide its head in a bush or hole in the ground when facing danger. Since the ostrich can no longer see the danger, it believes that the danger no longer exists and that it is safe from the consequences of the danger, whilst the bulk of its body remains in the open and thus is vulnerable to the original danger. An #OstrichPolicy is therefore the inability to act appropriately to avert danger or the inevitable consequences thereof." - Wiki



Being an adult is also about facing uncomfortable situations with lucidity, and taking responsibilities to resolve them.
