I read a very interesting post and it led me to try and understand why we do not want to be like our parents, why we do everything we can just not to be like our parents, why?
When we are young, we want to be just like our parents. For some of us, this feeling is reinforced when thoughts of the future begin to float.
How many times have you been asked what you want to be when you grow up? We assume quite a bit. Sometime in the early years of adolescence, our dreams and aspirations begin to crystallize and many begin to think about the future. Most of us have burrowed with the theme for a few more years.
If you ask this question, children between the ages of 13-15, they will not think twice, they want to be just like mom and dad.
There are many different sides to this acceptance: there is the complete acceptance, which stems from the deep understanding that our parents lived in a world of their own, and not everything was a good name as it is not good for us because of this we stop judging them. We understand them more and accept them truly
There is the partial acceptance, which stems from the fatigue of trying to change what can not be changed. So we accept our adolescent parents, as they are, even though we do not understand everything and do not accept everything.
And there is the fictitious completion, which was always there as living testimony to a parent-child relationship in which the child was never given a safe ground to criticize his parents. Therefore, it seems that everything is good and there is no need for completion. We're actually talking about a situation of lack of acceptance. In these places we will find the children who will choose (by chance?) To live away from their parents, to use them less, to share them less, even though it seems to be all right.
Among all these supplements, at some point, we ourselves become young parents. At first to tiny and incomprehensible creatures, but very soon we discover a child with attitudes and desires, often with positions that are incompatible with our goals. Then we discover the need to set boundaries and expand the definition of the parental role.
On the other hand, if the completion was partial or not at all, then the hidden motivation to reconcile with the parents may make us become just like our parents because that is what we know and know. Why? Because of as much as we are like our parents in our relationship with our children, it is a sign that our parents were not so "bad", their actions, those we did not like in the past, are legitimized by reconstructing them in our new relationship with our children. Legitimacy is important for us to reconcile with our parents since it was never really there.
When we understand the conflict of the child who is so angry at his parents, but also wants, above all, to know with full confidence that his parents are good parents who love him, then we understand the strong need for the late reconciliation.
For example, the child may have been beaten by his father and the child may not be suffering from his father. On the other hand, his father is his father and the boy cannot afford not to tolerate his father because then it's like a child losing a father. The only way to solve the conflict is to play the role of father. The way to make peace with your father is to hit your child when every blow is another proof that your father was a good father, and he did what needs to be done.
Of course, beating children is an extreme example and is a customer, I hope, from other times. But think of yourselves, of things you tell your children, or do to your children, and they are exactly the same things you as children did not like to receive from parents. Why? Is it because of what you see from here and that you can not see from there? Or is there something else here (or there)?
My parents, for example, very much wanted me to study in an orderly fashion. And I rebelled against them. Other parents very much want their child to do what they do in life, and run into a wall. You know the phenomenon, most of us rely on their parents financially every month to pay the rent and still we are upset at them terribly.
This anger manages you and leads to economic behavior delusional and divorced from reality. You compensate yourself for the harsh feelings towards them. Take loans on loans and spend money on vacations, on a new car, on smartphones. You are living beyond your financial ability.
But your financial abilities determine your consciousness, and if your mind has phrases like "You cannot", "You're stupid", "You have no chance", "You disappoint me", it will be very hard for you to succeed. So on the one hand, you do not really believe that you will succeed, because your parents told you, and on the other hand, you are behaving as if you have already succeeded in a big way because you are proving to them that they were wrong.
At the end of the day, you get into financial trouble and take your hard-earned money from your parents. They are frustrated with you and you are ashamed of yourself (or not).
Until the inevitable explosion arrives and all the repressed anger, sorrow, pain and resentment come out. Sounds familiar to you?
Anger does not allow us to think clearly, to choose reason, and to be free. We choose, sometimes completely unaware of, partners who do us bad, or work that torments us, just to make them, or to be different from them.
But there is no difference between a man who loves his parents, tries very hard to please them, and does exactly what is expected of him - his brother who is rebellious in his parents and behaves exactly the opposite of what they would like. These two brothers are operated by their parents. Their choices are not free and, in the end, both will suffer.
If you want to be happy, build a home, start a family, succeed in business, realize yourself, I offer you, with all my heart, to deal with the relationship with your parents. Release the emotional weights. And clean up the sediments between you and them. The emotional duties of the past and the holes you have in your soul are the financial obligations of the present and the holes that you have in your bank account.
If you release yourself and what is between you, you can get rid of those sentences that restricted you, forgive them and yourself and fly. Try, you have nothing to lose. Just make a profit.
