Good evening, everybody. How you all doing? Welcome to the show. We got a great show plan for you.

So much to talk about. I'm going to be talking about some parenting behaviors that I think apply to adults.

I've been doing a lot of that recently. You know, I've been spending more time sitting with some parenting

material looking at attachment styles and the ways that parents might raise their children.

More importantly, the parenting perspective they take because there are different parenting

perspectives.

And I don't even know if a lot of parents know that.

Often people just kind of wing it, but there's different styles and they have different

strengths and different weaknesses.

So I've been looking more into that.

But from the idea that that sets an internal, an internal working model, but also skills

that someone might have enhanced or completely be lacking based on the parental style.

So we're going to talk about that because it shows up in the way that those children then

relate to their peers, thereby again undoing or reinforcing some problematic

perspectives on relationships and social functioning. Then we take it into our adult lives.

So we're going to talk about it again through parenting, but it really applies to adults

because it's our job as adults to fortunately or unfortunately take responsibility and

accountability for the way we've been

constituted and decide how to be better. You know, we talk a lot in the research now about

intergenerational transmission of trauma, how we pass things along consciously,

unconsciously, physically as well. And we see that a lot in Holocaust survivors

and also victims of other forms of trauma, you know, where we hold it in our bodies.
