I'm _deeply_ uncomfortable with eye contact, and find Mr Rogers to be deeply disturbing to watch. And being able to _talk_ about that without it being implied that it means either of us are bad people is an important lesson.

And shifting the responsibility to him, by implying that he was a creep of a person.
