“When children can’t rely on their parents to meet their needs, they cannot develop a sense of safety, trust, or confidence. Trust is a colossal development issue. Without the learning of trust in our early years, we are set up to have a major handicap with believing in ourselves and feeling safe in intimate connections.”
― Will I Ever Be Good Enough? Healing the Daughters of Narcissistic Mothers
― Will I Ever Be Good Enough? Healing the Daughters of Narcissistic Mothers
“It goes without saying that people who interact with your children will influence them. If they are godless, they will influence your children in that direction. Parents and caregivers who are serious with the faith will therefore shield their children from the irreligious community by always reminding them of the purpose God has on them.”
