A blunder is committed by every wise and intelligent parent to impose his personality or self on the personality of the growing child. This is a grave mistake that every parent commits or repeats. The repercussions and aftermath of this incident are far reaching and very devastating and catastrophic for the developing psyche of the child. The end result is, the child grows into psychosis showing various signs from mild to severity of anxiety, anger, arrogance, adamant, mischievous, rage and craziness in his behavior. The parents being perturbed over this bizarre behavior of their child start scolding, beating and punishing
him in a vain bit to improve his habits and rude behavior. This strategy also has boomerang effect on the personality and psyche of the child.Firstly, he disobeys the parents unconsciously now he starts disobeying the command and will of parents with perseverance and determination with full conscious of events. The obstinacy and fixity becomes the hallmark of his ruddy behavior. He becomes spoilt and nuisance for the parents. Who has made the innocent child spoilt, arrogant and nuisant? The answer is the parents, by not understanding and judging accurately the potential of the hidden archetype of the child, and imposing ruthlessly their own archetype on the psyche of the child. The whole natural growing energy in its own distinct ways, in the child is blocked and psychosis is produced. The parents had tried in vain to divert the direction of this energy and natural flow of mind by imposing and substituting their own archetype. Its outcome is disastrous behavior of the child, the nuisance of the child, the mischievousness of the child, the obstinacy and stubbornness
of the child, the contrariness of the child. In a bid to shape and mould the personality in their own image, in their own perspective, they had played havoc with the energy and psyche of the child.Parental archetypes
Parental archetypes are behavioral patterns of mother and father, how they think, how they perceive things, how they react, how they feel, how they feed, how they dress, how they address, how they make their decisions or choices, their left or right sidedness, I mean every activity of their behavior-mental as well as physical, and in turn how they are reacted and responded by others
Parents have different archetypes like of teacher and professor, Artist and litterateur, magic and musician, religious and scientific tempered, mythological and inspiring type, business and commerce type, etc. Every person has got his unique personality and mentality in this universe. Every individual is unique in its way. No two people are identical in tone and temper. Every person has its own way of living and expression. Every person has its own ethical and religious notions, whims and ideas pertaining to religion, culture and life. In brief, the pattern of behavior of a particular person differs widely from other persons. This is what characterizes the personality and individuality of the concerned person. Instead of thrusting and imposing our own archetype on the psyche of the child parents should identify and recognize the original archetype of the child that may differ qualitatively from the archetype of his parents.
