Such learning would be far more helpful than many bags full of prohibitions, taboos, laws, rules and regulations. Children need to learn early how to recognize the predictors of destructive sexual relationships: Low self esteem, pretentiousness, defensiveness Misleading behavior, dishonesty Secretiveness, evasiveness Unreliability, unfulfilled promises Preoccupation with controls and being in control Preoccupations with perfection and imperfections Preoccupation with fixes, fixing, and technology Inclinations toward manipulations and violence Possessiveness, preoccupations with possessions (c) 2005 by Paul A.
