I think your instincts about there being more or a stronger sense of shame in the US is accurate. My family—though not exactly religious—were deeply influenced by the “shame on you” bs from Baptist and similar denominations. At least that’s how it was in my family. The audacity and zucking hypocrisy are real! :-p

I might not be around to directly support you or anyone else. Just hold it in your heart that I love and care for you (and most people). I neither blame nor shame but hold out a hand of moral support.
