I am not naturally this way and just wanted to send a snarky reply (hence the emotional space needed to master myself). But I also want to get this student on my side and now they might feel like I care/have listened to them/am compassionate and that could help get them to listen to me in turn.
I'm hoping anyway.
This could also backfire and result in them sending lots of whiny emails.
