[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 524724, member: 1550"] in my opinion, except in the case of SEVERE abuse and abandonment, such as kids who live in orphanages or end up having three caregivers who don't care about them from infancy on, it isn't the parent's fault and parents are an easy target to blame. Freud in my opinion was very dangerous. His theories, which are still held up today in some countries, have been proven wrong. Even he said science and medicine will probably prove him wrong and it pretty much did. Just because a child is a bit spoiled or a parent is a bit strict or a child gets an occaissional slap on the bottom doesn't make a child so damaged that he/she can not function. But if Mom drank while pregnant or got no prenatal care or the baby was a preemie...well, you have other possibilities there. Parents have been a scape goat too long. It is frustrating. I think each and every one of this on THIS board count as very caring, interesting, loving and GOOD mothers, despite having children with various issues. And some really cruppy parents get lucky and have kids who are the best...in a way it's a crapshoot. [/QUOTE]
