We spend more, but enjoy less.

We have bigger houses, but smaller families. 

We have more compromises, but less time. 

We have more knowledge, but less judgement. 

We have more medicines, but less health.

We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values.

We talk much, we love only a little and we hate too much.

We reached the moon and came back, but we find it troublesome to cross our own street and help somebody else.

We have conquered the outer space, but not our inner space.

We have higher income, but less morals.

These are times with more liberty, but less joy.

With much more food, but less nutrition.

These are days in which two salaries come home, but divorces increase.

Having to do things out of necessity doesn’t make it okay.⁣Kids do not have the life experience and emotional ability to handle the adult situations thrown at them.

Kids respond well to a secure and safe environment with adults who help them establish healthy emotional support and appropriate boundaries. ⁣

⁣

When adult and child relationships are reversed, children miss out on experiencing age-appropriate experiences. ⁣

{Adultlike behaviors rob kids of having a childhood.}⁣

Just because something is normal doesn’t mean that it’s healthy. If you were treated as an adult when you were a child, you could talk to a therapist to work through childhood experiences. Also, you can read some books to help you navigate your experiences.

A few suggestions are listed on the website under resources (bookshop).
