Hi again-

This here is just to keep the subject in view.
So as i've said, behavioral dependence is a drive. It is associated with reproduction. Look me up. (name search here)

Now then, for eons the human race got along and gets along perfectly SNAFU'd w/o any recourse to the concept that behavioral dependence is a natural and healthy state which operates in the following manner.
The primary drive expression by the neonate elicits the secondary expression of the drive from the parent.
Instead of regarding it as natural, dependence is too often regarded in the same aspect as "Man who is born of sin."
This results from -
-the basic tensions of dependence drive,
- the tensions resulting from interaction with the other components of reproductive drive, competition (socialization as competitive sexual selection in H.) eroticism and reproduction.
Although society functions w/o considering this, a scientific evaluation of human behavior can not be complete w/o addressing the issue.
