Doekid

undefined: Doekid is a role describing syskids and young headmates who hold/carry trauma specifically related to family and family dynamics. This can be from any kind of trauma.

The term was coined in part to help describe why a doekid may be more attached or repulsed from familial figures, and the complex relationships that come from having this experience.

The doe represents a childlike mindset, and is meant to reference the common symbolism found in deer families, such as Bambi. It is meant to shine a soft, gentle light on how a kid might hold something so heavy, and to make the experience less scary.

History
Doekid was made on August 10th, 2023, coined and designed by the Doelike, with help from Angel Blade.
