19 out of 20... I'm gonna try to remember to show that to my T next week, thanks.

I think what also happens is childhood trauma can lead to the child wanting to "fix" whatever was missing for them and they may do that in ways that are not healthy for them. For example, become very controlling to make up for the lack of control they experienced as a child.

Good points.

13 of them for me. Great article.

Open Eyes, I too think you have made a great point in general. My personal experience went a different direction. I learned at a very, very early age that I can not control my environment. This lesson was repeated and reenforced over and over again throughout my childhood. Probably more than trying to control the environment that I'm in, I gravitate more towards moving into a different and healthier environment, now. It's easier. As a child either approach is difficult, if not impossible. I had no control what so ever. I quess as a child you try to do whatever you can to facilitate survival, since you don't have any real control. In reality, where I was, it never was in the realm of possiblity to fix or repair my environment. It was like living in a minefield for 12 years. To this day I don't think that I can control or even should attempt to control my environment. Its better to love, educate and support those close to me as best I can. Shalom.

I've got about 14 of these...but it's very blurry for me where these are coming from.
Like my memories are gone...or never existed, I don't know

That's an interesting article. I can relate to all of them. Yet I still struggle to accept that it was abuse.

Totally understand. I guess I just have a hard time separating intentional and just not knowing how to raise a child.
