Hmm. So Dinah, last night I got deep enough into the book to find out what you are talking about- I was reading about babies and children modeling with their parents, and the reprecussions of these early experiences. Tough stuff, not easy reading. I did find a couple of short paragraphs at the end of the chapter that I read (p 171-172) which suggested that a positive, nurturing, "reparative" relationship with a therapist, a significant other, or a good friend could help an adult overcome early experiences. But I would have liked to see him elaborate a bit more- still hoping he does so later in the book.
