The loss of our children’s inner strength is entirely responsible for the direction our world has taken!
When our children lose their inner strength, they become helpless adults!
Without backbone and inner strength, nobody has what it takes to stand up for truth and compassion.
Right now, the environment we provide for our kids prevents backbone!
Overpowering our children’s natural ability to take care of themselves and follow their own path does not encourage backbone.
Instead, we get low self-esteem, and we get people who don’t know who they are. Now we have people who don’t even know what sex they are. We have done this to ourselves!
Life comes from inside. Strength comes from within! Everything good comes from deep inside through instincts, needs, and feelings!
WHAT DO WE HAVE TO DO?
We can reverse the direction our world has taken by allowing the power of our children to come from within them.
All other life already does this! Small groups of people do too.
Our children are supposed to live from their own efforts and wishes.
Life is designed to be driven from within. All life is.
Unfortunately, we have all been subjected to enough peer-pressure to make this very idea difficult for us to even consider.
That peer-pressure comes directly from those who take advantage of us.
They like things just the way they are.
There is nobody to stand up to them, and to understand what’s really happening. There are few of us left with the courage to call the greedy what they are, people without honor or compassion. People who don’t live from their hearts.
Even the billionaires suffer. If they could only understand how much better it feels to be real, they would give up their quest for money and power immediately.
In these times, our environment has come off the rails. When we overpower the self-drive of our young as we do, we take away their awareness of who they are.
PROOF
Every child you ever saw who was forced to comply on just about every issue in their early lives is lost. They are anxious, defensive, and disinterested in most things.
They chase power and money. They have no anchor. No inner peace.
Every child allowed to power and direct their own life is kind and strong. They are interested in everything and absolutely determined in all that they do. They have backbone and honor. They live from their hearts. They can be loving far beyond what we usually see now, in this world.
WHY IS THIS TRUE?
Because life comes from within! All life does.
It’s all designed to succeed from its own efforts. It is born with the will and the power to survive any way that it can.
Even more importantly, everything kind and wonderful about people, such as love and compassion, comes from deep inside. Without these qualities, people can be cruel. We start out defensive because the best of us is under attack.
Mankind may have decided that we can take over the lives of our children, but that doesn’t mean it can work. We are living the results of that experiment. Our world is steadily becoming more hostile.
But people, by nature, are kind and loving.
Defiance and hostility are not part of normal human life. Compassion and kindness are. But, we lose all that when we choose to ignore the self-driven nature of our children.
We also lost the backbone necessary to deal with greedy and dishonorable people. This is what has happened to our world.
We are taking away the backbone of every child as they come along.
The greedy among us can have a field day. There is nobody to stand against them.
HOW IMPORTANT IS THIS?
It’s a universal destructive force.
Every problem we struggle with, every tragedy we see, they all have the same root cause.
It’s critical, and we are in a crisis.
IT IS CRITICAL
This process is easy to test.
Every child supported in their own efforts goes on to become kind, gentle, and loving.
Every child controlled into obedience becomes resentful, defensive, defiant, and without compassion.
Teenage defiance isn’t even normal. It’s just what happens when they get big enough to challenge our overcontrol.
Yes, we feel the need for control. But we have caused that need. We have directed our children’s lives until they no longer have the instincts and strength to manage life properly. We see their helplessness. We need to recognize that we have caused that.
The support and love that happens instead, when they have been allowed to grow up through their own drive, will astonish you!
HOW DID THIS HAPPEN?
Life has evolved to be self-driven. Destroy that balance, and something bad will happen. Well, it certainly has happened.
Look around. It’s always true. This is not hard to see or understand. We have only gone down this road because the selfish of this world work so hard at making sure that we don’t understand.
Every adult who defies peer-pressure and allows their children to keep their original power gets strong, happy, confident, and loving children who become amazing adults.
It really works that way. That should be no surprise. It’s nature at work.
Thanks for listening.
Good luck on your own journey.
Take care,
