This is not a dream of utopia!
It’s our default condition!
There is only one thing preventing natural loving life, such as this!
With the best of intentions, we take over our children’s lives!
After that, they can no longer survive using their own resources!
All life needs its own power!
Controlling our young is not the way we should be taking care of them!
This job is supposed to be a partnership. What they need is to be nurtured.
The young only want and need protection, while they learn to cope with life on their own!
If we do that, we do indeed get an environment where everyone is our friend, and there is never a need for secrets!
But that’s not what we do!
This troubled and violent world is the consequence of what we do instead!
Why such a disastrous outcome, from such a small mistake?
Because it causes almost unrepairable damage!
Life is all about managing through our own efforts!
We no longer help our children to develop self-reliance!
What we teach, is to surrender to others, and give up our own power!
How well do you think that’s going to work?
It causes selfish, greedy, and hurting people. That’s because they have suffered damage!
This is a world full of people who have been controlled as children, and believe in it!
It was not a good plan!
Mankind will be lucky to survive!
We really need to move back to nature’s ways, while there’s still a planet left to live on!
Any child who has been protected, while being allowed to decide and power their own way, becomes a lovely person!
Controlled children though become unable to live with others!
The fighting just never ends!
We have all seen enough to know that this is true!
We control anyway because to step outside our established way of life is to be at war with the majority who have accepted these methods that cause this never-ending conflict!
Are we stuck this way? Must we go on creating non-functional people and then suffering the chaos?
Probably, for a great many, we just might be!
For the rest of us, we can have functional people and a cooperative loving environment!
The sad part of this is that it’s many, many times easier to do the job of raising powerful children this way!
They love us and voluntarily help!
Every child is trying their hardest to learn to manage life through their own resources.
That’s the reason for all this conflict when we control them.
The conflict is for life! A person’s identity doesn’t give up trying until it becomes banished!
Does this sound healthy?
This is the reason so many are in therapy trying to regain the self-esteem that they lost!
