I guess I wasn't clear. I was thinking that in the triad, MC would be in your father's role, you would be your mother's role, and H would be in the role that *you* were as a child.

In other words, this time around, H would be the excluded one. And this time, you'd have the satisfaction of being the one with the special relationship with your "dad."

But, you know, I think everyone we know can play myriad transference roles in our minds....
