[QUOTE="Viktor Zeegelaar, post: 1558081, member: 22108"] Same experience, was just thinking about this this weekend. I had a very loving upbringing, but the ship needs two sides to be in balance: love (mother) and discipline (father). My father gew up in the 60s and sadly fell for many of the relativistic ideas of his time, which looked great for teenagers back then but almost without an exception ended up drastically bad, which people living meaningless lives, confused about masculinity, how to raise children, how to do anything in life, as their map (Christianity and tradition) was taken away from them. Also confidence was a key concept in my upbringing: I remember my mother saying that was a concept that was big in the 70s. It's only recently that I could link that (60s/70s were the breeding ground for modern day relativism, secularism and the resulting meaninglesness/nihilism/confusion) to problems that arose in me later. Short story: there was no discipline or masculine influence and everything was love, which made the ship tilt towards one side. When a ship tilts towards one side and there is no balance, it will fall to the side and sink. It can't stay afloat, it's impossible. Life and your delusions will crush you and you'll be a boxer in the ropes until you've gotten enough hits to finally bite back and wrestle away from the attacker. The fact that this balance has been taken away by the 60s/70s revolutionary, leftist, relativist, atheist and secular ideas is the number one reason kids are collapsing like ships tilted to one side, as masculinity fades away more and more the fall becomes quicker and quicker. Sadly our parents don't do this with bad intentions, mine certainly didn't, but it takes a lot of soul searching for a child to get back to a sense of reality and truth after being raised that way, have been collapsed and have been on the wrong road for such a long time. The longer you're on the wrong path the further away you're from the goal, the deeper you're in the jungle.
