[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar *, post: 664135, member: 17461"] I absolutely believe the traits we consider abnormal today run the genetic line because they were instrumental ~ were maybe the deciding factor ~ in the line's survival. Whatever else we have to say about our troubled kids, they have never taken well to being told "Because I said so." Our ancestors crossed an ocean in a time when to do that was as dangerous as traveling through space would be, today. Daughter has always wanted to travel into space; has always, from the time she was a little girl, wanted to be one of the people who travel the stars and settle on strange planets. Son wanted to be a pilot. (Or a person who sues people, but we are considering that wild gene, that exploring gene, that part of our troubled kids that refuses to bend the knee, not the gene, wherever that came from, for suing people.) If you look, I think you will find it in your own heart. Something wild. It is not something that fits in well with bureaucratic twistedness. They like their challenges real. As we work here to clear caches of shame, I am beginning to see everything that happened from a different ~ like the genesis of the things that happened may be very different than the shame I trudged around in for so long. Dirty little failure in the country of origin / exploring, creating, wealth-building patriarch, here. It could be. Look at the Kennedy's. Those of us who hoard every calorie and move slowly and sit heavily vs those of us who roar through the days and can never sit still. In times of famine, those able to hoard calories and store energy live, carrying the human race forward into time. There is a purpose, and there is a survival value, to all that we are.
