Little Markie, our example, spent so much time second-guessing his parents, especially his mother, that he really had little time to pay attention to himself, so that he could grow up. It sounds rather quaint if you don't think about it: Markie who was so unselfish, so quiet and un-rebellious, Markie who was so easy to look after because he was never any trouble! Deep inside, though, he's had a deprived childhood. He was robbed! Do you see yourself in him? Or someone you know?
