When we raise a child with anger, neglection or punishments, we will fill him or her with aggression. In one way or another this aggression will come out. The children may aim the aggression towards themselves, or they will aim it towards others. Parents may sometimes consider their children to be ”just children.” They should instead make an effort to warm their children’s hearts and also consider that their children will grow up to be adults. When they are adults the verdict will fall right back on the parents. So, what will characterize your child’s childhood? Will it be memorized as a warm, lovely summer breeze, or as a dark stormy ocean?
I write this because I have met so many broken children, coming from destructive homes, but also homes where parents really are struggling without coping. I myself needed to learn new perspectives when I had my children, since I grew up in a narcissistic home.
In Safe Harbour you will get to know a broken mother, who with the help of wonderful people and from different directions found advice to create the warm, lovely summer breeze.
After reading the book, my dear friend Maria Glansén, expressed; ”From reading this book, I realize that there is nothing special we have to do to help our children with their self-esteem, instead it’s about the way we are, a way of being.”
