It would be nice if all parents were "self-actualized" enough to be able to help their children with their emotions. With all the education we get at school growing up, certainly when I grew up in the 60's an 70's no emphasis was placed on "emotional education." I had a "old-timer" start to lecture me (uninvited advice) telling me what I "needed" to do and I simply asserted, "I don't need to do anything." The program worked for me in that all my experience in what I had been doing was enough to feel satisfied I was doing my part. I am especially grateful for sponsors who never lectured at me but would not "sugar coat" their advice either. I had one sponsor who when the inflection in his voice changed I knew I better pay attention. It was like the "burning bush" to me.
