To change our culture, to bring empathy back to the core as the fundamental quality of our culture.
From the base, from how we frame ourselves as people, as parents and as children.
It WILL build as more people understand the importance of our earliest (and for most of us, forgotten) lived experiences.
The science and biology of empathy is now well established. The understand
ing
of how human behaviour is mediated is likewise well established, though
the mainstream still ignores it, as do most Power linked Religions.
Who can recall the DETAIL of their infancy - therein lies clues to our behaviours, our unconscious patterns and adaptations?
Vital information is there, about what we learned at the deepest pre-verbal visceral level, about Power, co-operation, empathy, sense of self.
Blaming parents for the ills of Society is a tactic that Institutional Society employs. To let itself off the hook.
That is not to say that abusive parents are to be let presented with excuses for behaviour that causes harm.
Rather it is a call to recognise that helping stressed parents understand their own infancy AND how the pressures imposed on them by work, economics, etc., increases the difficulties they face, is to recognise that helping parents to understand the natural emotional and psychic needs of their children and exploring how Institutional Society thwarts the meeting of those needs through war, indoctrination, poverty/concentration of wealth, media, marketing, coercive competitive schooling, hierarchical power will decrease the incidence of abuse for the majority of stressed parents.
Most parents do love their children, and many struggle with that love because the messages they received, that their grand parents and great grand parents and ancestors received about parenting were mediated by Institutional Society, and by Religion and by the adverse affects of unresolved trauma and there has never been a consistent effort to HELP parents resolve their own issues because those issues are often linked to how Institutional Power operates and thus affects so many lives.
Understanding that we all did not choose our families nor our society and have had to deal with any adverse affects by adapting, surviving, 'fitting in'. Understanding that intergenerational trauma patterns are a reality. Yet they are not written in stone.
We can break the cycle. We can recover our full humanity.
There is no greater gift to future generations.
There is no greater gift to oneself.
