      When I was a kid grown, people were adults and behaved that way, and this is how people spoke to each other most of the time. By the time I was in my 20s, during the nineties, it had become very difficult to find someone to have a real conversation with. Instead, people mostly would just talk at each other; wait for each other to shut up so that they could say what they wanted to say.

      I was married to a man like that. He worked two jobs to avoid the difficult job of raising our kids, and was highly critical, of the limits I set. He often let the kids out of punishments and the limits I set. I tried many years and once the kids were grown (which definitely felt like a prison term), I divorced him. My second husband was the exact opposite of my first husband! I was a full time step mum to two of his four kids. This experience was so enjoyable, I almost hated to see them grow up. So, I learned then, it wasn’t totally “me”, it was the lack of “us” that was the problem. Sadly, the people we love, sometimes ARE NOT the people we should have kids with. 😞

    Mom was there for him, seeked for help, shared personal info, gave permission to record material other people would be ashamed of, reflected on her feelings and thoughts, and accepted openly criticism. She's brave and worths nothing but recognition -at least half a century later-, keep in mind that therapy was deeply connected with stigma at the time, and still is. She was also experiencing abuse, she deserved a better life but was still caring to save her son's. Even though the mother of "the child" maybe wasn't the most highly educated concerning parening issues, he should feel proud about her and lucky to have her.

      His mother referred to him as 'the child'. Very impersonal. I was a child in the 50's/60's and had a very kind & caring mother. We were working class so didn't have much in the way of possessions. Love is free. Myself & most of my close friends were not disciplined in a physical way so had a good childhood. School however showed us a different side to life. Corporal punishment was prevalent. Watching 'rude' children being struck with a leather belt did not help them or those of us that had to watch. The usual recipients ended up getting in trouble with the police or dying young due to taking drugs. A long time ago now but never forgotten. Violence can begat violence. At least it did in our school 😢

      My mother is an early childhood teacher. In behavioural reports that go to parents I’ve seen that they use Initials or ‘the other child’ or ‘Other’ for safety reasons - protecting that child from identification by strangers - an example was a choking incident like the video, the mother of the choked child was extremely protective and threatened to sue (can’t sue in New Zealand) the parents of the child when they found out who they were. To avoid the whole mess and others like it, my mother used fake initials, ZT, to which the mother was looking on the birthday wall for the initials. Her plan apparently was to find the child, wait with them, and threaten the parents. Nut jobs are why nut rules are in nut place.

I recall the doctor and staff all very nice and caring. This would have been about 1963. Of course, I only realized what was going on later in my teens after asking my mother about it. I wasn't an aggressive student as here, but I was acting out in class and under performing in spite having high scores on intelligence test for the time. Turns out it was due to my relationship with my father. He got involved and apparently all worked out for the better.

Obviously medicated women was just a fraction of the amount of women that are medicated today. But the medication’s just create a false sense of control, they don’t actually make things better, so often people who lash out in extreme ways, seemed like zombies on their medication’s, but their opinions and deeply rooted issues were never altered, just temporarily suppressed. Don’t forget her father was probably a World War II soldier and this was also during the time when people pulled away from the morals of the church at home and school and experimented with everything.

    If a child lives with hostility, he learns to fight.
    If a child lives with ridicule, he learns to be shy.
    If a child lives with shame, he learns to feel guilty.
    If a child lives with tolerance, he learns to be patient.
    If a child lives with encouragement, he learns
    confidence.
    If a child lives with praise, he learns to appreciate.
    If a child lives with fairness, he learns justice.
    If a child lives with security, he learns to have faith.
    If a child lives with approval, he learns to like himself.

    That was very telling when he was worried about getting paint on his hands and said “uh oh, I’m afraid, cause mommy’s gonna give me a hit”. then right after he says “the mother is going after the baby, she’s gonna spank the baby” then says “the father is going to spank the mother, then the mother is going to spank the baby”. A cold household where everyone tries to impose their dominance over the weaker members. No wonder the boy is aggressive. He has to be when the whole family dynamic is based on a power struggle.

I can definitely see it being possible. Was she more focused on herself when she was under stress? After the kids description of the birds he painted, I'd say likely.

      Indeed. It's trickle down. The husband beats the wife. The wife beats the child. And then child will mess up their kids if he has any. My mom is very stand-offish too. Doesn't even like to be touched. At all. I can't remember the last time I got a hug from her. Usually around once a year, if I'm lucky. Fortunately, my dad is more affectionate. Of course, he had a messed up childhood too. His mom would go to restaurants and eat in front of him while she made him stand outside and watch her eat. Good times...

      Just for clarification, he is not a psychologist. He is a psychiatrist. Psychologists get doctorates in the science of psychology to become therapists. Psychiatrists are physicians who go to medical school and then concentrate in the treatment of mental disorders through medication alongside therapy. This difference could also be why you're impressed with him, he has had much more extensive training than a psychologist.

      I really don't think most therapists, pychiatrist, etc. were all that different. I believe it is most people now who have a warped view of history. This is because what we hear about the practices of the past are mostly accounts of extreme cases. Granted there were some widespread issues, especially with institutiinalization; however, working in the mental health field for the last 15 years, I am not convinced that the current practices are substantial improvements. Many continue to be institutionalized, it has just taken a different form, one with broader implications and harm to communities. I am not advocating going back, mind you, just that the field has not made the progress many seem to believe it has.

      @@TheJohmac my fathers youngest brother was “put away” in a psychiatric hospital because he was out of control. My fathers family didn’t want to be “associated” with him or have others know that their son was mentally ill. He was in there in the mid 1960’s. They were well known in their community and couldn’t have a child who was “different” and rarely ever visited him. I met him once when I was about 5 years old and remember seeing him sitting in a chair just staring at the wall. My father tried talking to him and he wouldn’t respond. The visit was maybe 5 to 10 minutes until my father said, “Let’s go, I don’t know why I even bothered to see him anyways.” I was confused what was going on and asked my father if, “ everything was okay?” He said, “Yes, everything is fine, don’t worry, we won’t ever come here again.” I couldn’t ask him who that man was until many years later because he would get so upset every time I would bring it up. I never saw him again and learned that he died in there a few years later. It has always bothered me how my grandparents just got rid of him because they didn’t want to be embarrassed.

Since mother had similar behaviour if innerstanding correctly family dynamics most likely picked up in utero. Bio-energetic field (auric field) protection is a must. With this said mother most likely has same field attachment picked up lonnng ago. These type attachments have been common in various ways, some more serious than others, for most now being discovered more so in these Times of Transparency, Awakening & Juvenation. Time to Heal. A-Gain KEY POINT is to have ones energy fields protected preventing situations similar to this from happening. Kicker is if field attachment healed not then field attachment can come to be an Entity of its own overtaking body and original conscious.

      This is true. When I was spanked it was always done in anger. Then I spanked my kids and realized I did the same thing. Spanking really isn't healthy. I think a lot of spanking can be frustration on the parents end. I think more parents need to realize that kids don't have an adult level of understanding and rationalization. It's important parents try and take care of their mental health so they can raise their children properly. Good communication and mutual respect is key to a healthy relationship between a parent and a child. Any kind of hitting is not needed and is harmful.
