Interns: Do not observe they facilitate Do not study theory they apply it Do not complete assignments they create impact There is a trap embedded in unnamed helping that Fuller describes with clinical precision. People who help well are often given more responsibility but not more recognition. More requests but not more authority. More trust but not more choice. "Over time, helping without naming can become a trap. People feel indispensable but replaceable. Trusted but not advanced. Needed but not developed. They carry systems without being carried by them." He draws a distinction he clearly considers essential: care versus extraction. Care recognizes the human cost of helping. Extraction relies on helping without acknowledging it. "When systems depend on unnamed helping, they extract value without responsibility. They benefit from stability without investing in the people providing it. They rely on emotional labor without making it visible. They assume resilience without supporting it." Naming, he argues, is the first step toward ethical engagement. Without it, helping remains exploitable even when intentions are good.
