We do. I think a stronger innate understanding of the relationships involved makes it a lower-stress affair.

Yep. I read the over concern as a stress reaction to trying to please an emotionally abusive parent -- which also works with an nt child. "I will do my best to make this work out an even if it goes perfectly my parent may still find a reason to meltdown."
