Why do people belittle Childhood Emotional Neglect?

When I tell some people some things I experienced to them its like “ that’s not that bad” Obviously at 22 years old the reality of my traumas doesn’t seem bad. But when I think of the things I went through I imagine myself as that little 10yr old girl. To that 10yr old girl, the experiences hurt, the pain is alot.

That’s why when I express my pain, I’m not expressing it as the 22 yr old I am, I’m expressing it as the 10yr old who felt all the emotional neglect and emotional abuse.
