Guest guest Posted December 24, 2003 Report Share Posted December 24, 2003 ahh, there you are, coming up with the magical elixir and the coat of arms and family song. these myths sounded just like my family. i could identify with all but one. Can you further explain how you can disagree and validate? gregory, i would like to take this opportunity to properly thank you for all of the information you provided me on forgiveness and for bringing me to a new and wonderful place. you've got a great arsenal of stuff here, what's your story? again thanks for the intelligent support you provide here, i am bowing at your feet. happiest of holidays and may you recieve blessings 10 fold of what you provide for others. tiki Re: Hoovered again (((((Edith...Help))))) Carol, How dare you interrupt the dysfunctional balance! Those who've taken the blue pill don't want to hear about the red pill. Does " sister brother level " communication consist of preventing discussion of controversial (taboo) topics? One doesn't have to agree to validate. Alice 's " insidious collection of cruel myths " comes to mind (particularly #s 1, 2, 3, 11, 12, 13, 15): 1. A feeling of duty produces love. 2. Hatred can be done away with by forbidding it. 3. Parents deserve respect simply because they are parents. 4. Children are undeserving of respect simply because they are children. 5. Obedience makes a child strong. 6. A high degree of self-esteem is harmful. 7. A low degree of self-esteem makes a person altruistic. 8. Tenderness (doting) is harmful. 9. Responding to a child's needs is wrong. 10. Severity and coldness are a good preparation for life. 11. A pretense of gratitude is better than honest ingratitude. 12. The way you behave is more important than the way you really are. 13. Neither parents nor God would survive being offended. 14. The body is something dirty and disgusting. 15. Strong feelings are harmful. 16. Parents are creatures free of drives and guilt. 17. Parents are always right.
