Modern Children and Their Old-Fashioned Parents, or About What Is So Hard to Admit

Our relationships with children precisely mirror our relationships with our “inner child”—which, in turn, repeats the model of how adults treated us when we ourselves were children. And if, during their childhood, parents didn’t experience some age-appropriate aspects adequately or didn’t solve an important developmental task at that age, then with a high likelihood they won’t allow their own children to do it either… unless they take up self-exploration and work through what, for some reasons, they weren’t able to do back then. This book is exactly about that. The psychological part is complemented by a fictional story told from a child’s perspective, giving you the chance to imagine what the child might tell adults if they could express their thoughts. The publication will be interesting to both parents and grown children who are trying to understand their lives.
