Someone once said, “You shall know the truth and it will piss you off.” One of the truths that most of us eventually come to the realization of is that our parents did the best they could based on their level of awareness and exposure. When most of us come to this realization and see the need for reparenting, we are busy with our own kids and being adults. We become like our parents, victims of victims perpetuating the circle of dysfunction and trauma. As American Swiss Psychoanalyst Carl Jung once observed “Until you make the unconscious conscious, it would direct your life and you would call it fate.” We live below the veil of consciousness as a result of our indoctrination, domestication, programming, and script handed to us by our caregivers, parents, and society. If you don’t reparent yourself, you will constantly blame your parents for messing you up and you might not be fully present to care for your own kids too and the circle continues perpetually.
