| Re: Something for Parents
If you are talking of a fostering or adoption agency that would be a criteria.
Parents setting out to have children, intended or not, have a responsibility and part of that responsibility is parenting a child relative to it's age and there always something new to lean here to enhance what comes naturally. There are parenting organisations that help with the parenting of children at a young age.
What we at heropath are more interested for teens and parents is when the young person begins to question who they are in the world beginning ordinarily from the age of 11 + beginning the road to independence, more and more making decisions for themself. The question in the background of that decision making is whether it is off an excitatory bias or an inhibitory bias. Over time the life lead from these positions in the most extreme will be one of nothing missing or crisis, respectively.
The upside is, as far as i can tell, there is always the opportunity to allow poor parenting to be unwound once there is the glimpse and readiness for the person to reset themselves so living out and creating a story, that in doing so, the results of their actions are recognised as a match and fit for them. What they learnt once to limit them is now limit less.
Remember no parents are perfect so most are doing their best given their circumstance. We run teens workshops and the teens come from all backgrounds and every and each have the potential to be realised.
