Many parents are afraid to have their children go for therapy or counseling. In addition to fearing social judgment, another reason can be that they feel insecure about themselves and fear that all of the children's problems will turn out to be their fault. Another is that they want the children to have the parents' values and goals. When a friend or therapist encourages the person to speak up with their own needs and thoughts, the parent can sometimes perceive that as the therapist "putting ideas in their head." The same thing can happen between a person and their spouse, siblings, or friends. Ultimately you need to stand up for what you need and want, and they will have to adjust, regardless of their resistance to it. One thing I have liked about therapy/counseling is that a good therapist has the opposite influence - to help people see that they are not so bad as they feared. I would suggest that you look at your own feelings and needs - do you think it would help to have someone to talk to? or to discuss the scores with to give you additional insight?
