RE: Do You Have A Darkside?

in #blog6 years ago

I had never heard of this shadow part before actually but your example makes really good sense.

I think often totally do not realize how their behavior affects other in their way of thinking or what finding normal.

example: I was grown up living with the kids who also lived in my neighborhood. girls AND boys. we had slumberparties till about the age of 12, still girls AND boys.

I mentioned this to my caribbean colleagues a while back when living there. They found it unacceptable as parents. slumberparties..?? and with boys even??
I find they are forgetting that at that age sexuality is not a taboo as yet and kids should feel comfy about it.

Now what reality in the caribbean is is a skyhigh teenage pregnancy rate (im talking like 12/13 years old)....i dont know it there is a connection, but it sure as hell wont help I guess.

im not finding my words really but you catch my drift right?

Sort:  

Those types of connections aren't imaginary dear @katinxxl and not some form of coincidental synchronicity. Blind studies have been done over and over on the dynamics of influence. It's just a very uncomfortable topic for many of us to broach, never-mind, entertain. As is the idea of a dark-side— alone, it has many stigmas attached.
