Creating a Loser


Kim is so good at making sure that Madi's "I can't" and "it hurts" blocks are heavily reinforced. Sometimes, I find it impossible to tolerate her self limiting approach and her attempt to evangelicize it amongst the family. It is one of the that have may things pushed me out of love with her.

It isn't nurture, instead it is a control - "always remember what your limitations are". It is this that I need to run so far away from. Unless it gies away, it will, like the flight fear, limit what our kids are capable of. I hate it.
