A QUESTION FROM OTHERWISE · VOLUME I + II
Can care remove the agency it is trying to protect?
Care often acts before certainty because waiting can itself cause harm. But repeated rescue can quietly change the protected person's role from author to object of protection.
After helping, ask what decision-making capacity the intervention returns. Protection that never returns authorship can become a dependency generator.
