An _omission_ of action or speech is not deemed blameworthy. </p><p>Having said this, the "heaviest" Kamma is the thinking kind (in the sense of bringing the worst consequences); not the speaking or acting kinds of kamma. This is especially true of thinking-kamma, if it is the hateful or vengeful kind (should our minds become "stuck" in that kind of mode).</p><p>PS: I think modern Psychology would add to this and point out that newborn babies absolutely need love, affection, and care, in order to "attune" them (as in, raise them properly), so I would say that's a special case of "compelled" speech or action being immoral to withhold, by the parents.</p><p><a href=\"https://c.im/tags/psychology\" class=\"mention hashtag\" rel=\"tag\">#<span>psychology</span></a></p>",
