A quick definition of concur:

Term: CONCUR

Definition: Concur means to agree or give permission. It can also mean to agree with a decision made by someone else, like a judge or another group. In government, it can mean that one group accepts a change made by another group. In some situations, it can mean that people join together to ask for something they are owed.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: To agree or consent. In a judicial opinion, to agree with the judgment in the case, or the opinion of another judge, but often for different reasons or through a different line of reasoning. In a bicameral legislature, to accept an amendment passed by the other house. In civil law, to join with other claimants in presenting a demand against an insolvent estate.

  • After much discussion, the board members finally concurred on the new policy.
  • In the Supreme Court's decision, Justice Smith concurred with the majority opinion, but wrote a separate opinion explaining her reasoning.
  • The Senate passed a bill with amendments, and now it's up to the House of Representatives to concur with the changes.
  • Several creditors concurred in filing a claim against the bankrupt company's estate.

The examples illustrate different contexts in which the term "concur" can be used. In the first example, board members come to an agreement on a new policy. In the second example, a judge agrees with the majority opinion but provides a different explanation. In the third example, one house of a legislature accepts changes made by the other house. In the fourth example, creditors join together to make a claim against a bankrupt company's estate.

Nah, the fucked up thing about therapists is they try and make you think your parents are your enemy 99% of the time and really they should be telling you that your parents have almost no effect on the rest of your life. If they can get you to keep focusing on your parents they can keep making money.

Yeah, my life really does flow in about 5 years periods.
