Every Child Has A Legitimate Narcissistic Need To Be Noticed, Understood, Taken Seriously, And Respected By His Mother. In The First Weeks And Months Of Life He Needs To Have The Mother At His Disposal, Must Be Able To Use Her And To Be Mirrored By Her.

What Is Addiction, Really? It Is A Sign, A Signal, A Symptom Of Distress. It Is A Language That Tells Us About A Plight That Must Be Understood.

People Who, As Children, Were Intellectually Far Beyond Their Parents And Therefore Admired By Them, But Who Also Therefore Had To Solve Their Own Problems Alone. These People, Who Give Us A Feeling Of Their Intellectual Strength And Will Power, Also Seem To Demand That We, Too, Ought To Fight Off Any Feeling Of Weakness With Intellectual Means. In Their Presence One Feels One Cannot Be Recognized As A Person With Problems Just As They And Their Problems Were Unrecognized By Their Parents, For Whom He Always Had To Be Strong.

I Sincerely Believe That We Not Only Have The Right To Know What Is Good And What Is Evil; We Have The Duty To Acquire That Knowledge If We Hope To Assume Responsibility For Our Own Lives And Those Of Our Children. Only By Knowing The Truth Can We Be Set Free.
