   %CHILD OBJECTIVE REALITY ADDICTIVE DEPENDENT SCI 910425

     To  the  child  who  asks  too  many  questions in an
addictive   and/or   codependent  family,    the  response
indicates    that  certain   questions  do  not  lead   to
meaningful knowledge  or change.  Some things appear to be
beyond question;  beyond the power of the child to know or
change.

     In   some  families  the  child  does  not  learn the
difference  between  objective realities (which cannot  be
changed  by any humans,   regardless of how much power the
humans  have)  and  some subjective realities  (which  the
child    does   not  have   the  power  to  influence   in
meaningful  and  significant ways)---but which  adults  do
have  the power to influence in meaningful and significant
ways.    The  child needs to learn about  that  difference
which can make quite a difference in adult life.

     If   a  child   confuses   objective  realities  with
some subjective  realities which the child as child  could
not change,  then the adult to which the child gives birth
will  not know the difference between objective  realities
which cannot be changed and subjective realities which the
adult  can   change.   The adult to which the child  gives
birth  may  become   a  scientist   who   is   unable   to
recognize    the difference   between  unchangeable   laws
which   describe objective processes,   and the changeable
patterns of human behavior  which  are reflexive,  and can
be    changed   with  appropriate   reflection   which  is
reflexive  rather  than objective.

     The   scientist   is preoccupied with  objects  which
can  be manipulated.  The scientists does  not devote much
attention  to  trying  to change what is believed  to   be
beyond   the  range  of human influence to  change.    The
scientist   whose  inner   child  failed  to   learn   the
difference  between objective   realities   which   cannot
be   changed,     and subjective   relationships   between
people  which  can  be changed,    is prone to fail to try
to  change dysfunctional subjective  relationships  within
the scientific  community,  which  can  be changed in ways
found   through   appropriate reflection,  meditation  and
prayer.

                                                                                                                               
                         (c) 2005 by Paul A. Smith in      
                    (On Being Yourself, Whole and Healthy)
