no big answer - just a hug.
I figure if I knew the answer to that one - I'd be as rich as Oprah!
I think the whole 'inner child' deal is vital, but oversimplified.
At the same time- there's things we bury when that young ...
that become like an autonomic response - like an automatic knee jerk ...
if anything that 'feels' that way comes up.
And the response is usually to shut down.
Making for big gaps in childhood memory ... and escapism in adult life..
That might be in the neighborhood of her pursuit of it I dunno.
I don't know that I *have* reconciled parental stuff.
My mother was an abuser.
I've worked years and years on this.
I'm interested to know how it goes for you.
