That Probably Greatest Of Narcissistic Wounds --

Parents Are Indeed Capable Of Routinely Torturing Their Children Without Anyone Interceding.

The Knowledge That You Were Beaten And That This, As Your Parents Tell You, Was For Your Own Good May Well Be Retained (although Not Always), But The Suffering Caused By The Way You Were Mistreated Will Remain Unconscious And Will Later Prevent You From Empathizing With Others. This Is Why Battered Children Grow Up To Be Mothers And Fathers Who Beat Their Offspring

The More We Idealize The Past And Refuse To Acknowledge Our Childhood Sufferings, The More We Pass Them On Unconsciously To The Next Generation.

Those Children Who Are Beaten Will In Turn Give Beatings, Those Who Are Intimidated Will Be Intimidating, Those Who Are Humiliated Will Impose Humiliation, And Those Whose Souls Are Murdered Will Murder.

If A Mother Respects Both Herself And Her Child From His Very First Day Onward, She Will Never Need To Teach Him Respect For Others.
