Eight Days Quotes

“My own mother was much the same,’ she said. ‘That’s how I knew. Nothing you do is ever right, no achievement is ever good enough. Children grow up with a need to be praised, to impress their parents, and if every achievement is lambasted or denigrated, they quickly develop a sense of disillusionment. They go the opposite way, either outwardly into rebellion, or inwardly into depression.”
