Well considering that the example of when the mother is at work and the child
who spills the porridge figures that its world is caving in, as the father who is
now faced with not having enough money to buy a box of beer and a carton
of cigarettes, if he has to buy more porridge, has already been used up
I would suggest any occurrence, no matter how major or minor to whom
that gets your sphincter grasping for air is an emergency requiring attention
However the biggest emergency by far, comes from the diver who postpones
seeking assistance until escalation makes the occurrence far less controllable
and that for lack of understanding, but mainly for the fear of embarrassment
