We are all responsible for our own mental health. The OP is not responsible for anyone’s mental health but his own.
Saying some discussion needs to be hidden away because someone somewhere may react negatively is patently ridiculous and damaging to society.
I have a trigger, and just like my self-harm it is atypical, I am triggered by parents showing pride in their children. Doesn’t matter if it’s real life, or film, or book. It always turns me into a wreck, and sometimes has me believing in worthless in dangerous ways.
Should my expectation be that those around me not show pride in their children? Should I demand warnings on all material that depicts parents showing pride in their children? It’s ridiculous. My trigger is MY responsibility.

Deleting it goes against the premise of “No stupid questions”. Hiding information in a place literally made to give out information without judging the question, is literally the opposite of the intent.
Many questions posted here are easily answer through wikipedia, and people might ask them in a place like this instead for a multitude of reasons. One of them being that they avoid looing it up directly as a way to limit themselves getting triggered from the pictures or text that might be there, and just want a more summarized answer to their question.

There are plenty of subjects inappropriate for this sub.
I’m sure I don’t need to enumerate them for you.
I think a discussion around whether this type of question is appropriate is entirely healthy, as there may be ramifications which are not immediately clear.
