I've come to the realization that every negative we go through is a result of our childhood.
If one was loved and encouraged, one is predominantly happy-go-lucky, whereas one whom was neglected is always lacking something; even though they have everything.
We thrive on love, love really is the answer. Love your children. You really make a better world through love .. :)

Yep, I agree here!
...except for that "happy-go-lucky" bit, for me anyway.

I don't think so. When I analyse my childhood I don't see any reason in it for things that have happened to me. I had a happy childhood filled with love of my family members. But, see it now. Not a trace of love for me here. I'd rather blame my previous lives for it, if such thing exists, of course.

i have to disagree with you.while i agree wat happens in your childhood affects your life as you grow older i dont think its the reason for everything bad that happens in your life.i had a good upbringing but have had negative things happen.i have a friend who had a horrific childhood but today has a great family and great life.i think as adults we make our own decisions so if it turns out wrong we only got ourself to blame.

You and the thread poster are both right. Bad parents can screw up people in ways they never imagined possible and people need to get over their childhoods and learn to live.
I think your childhood has influence on how you grow up and how you act as an adult, but many changes can occur during that time, both positive and negative. I had a good childhood too, and now....so much horrible stuff has happened to me, there is NO way I could blame my childhood or my parents or siblings!!
Trying for change in my life has been horribly hard and being without a good man is another facet that is even harder for me. Enduring two awful marriages, being divored and now raising a young child totally on my own - well, I cannot blame that on my childhood. I have sisters, brothers and my parents are still married - 60 years and going strong - in their 70s!! Although things were not always "the best", they were good and I prospered and grew from those experiences. I am close to everyone of them still.
What has happened to me now is a result of bad choices in my life (and marriages) and the economy, losing my career job, and other things - but I continue to keep pushing forward! I don't dwell on my past or childhood - I think of the good memories and it brings a smile to my face...something that is not so prominent with me anymore... but I am trying!

Isn`t it great when we have someone or something to blame,
I completely dissagree. We cant go through life blaming our misdeeds on our childhoods. Being a responsible adult is exactly that....Taking responsibilties for our actions

We are all products of our own history. The present is being read through the lens of that history, so it's difficult to be exclusively in the the moment, because this moment is viewed through the the lens of that history.
Jung wrote, "Parents should always be conscious of the fact that they themselves are the principal cause of neurosis in their children. Children are so deeply involved in the psychological attitude of their parents that it is no wonder that most of the nervous disturbances in childhood can be traced back to a disturbed psychic atmosphere in the home."
Complexes are generally rooted in childhood experiences, childhood wounding can cause personality traits, subconscious behaviour such as projections well into adulthood...in fact if not dealt with, will stay with the individual for life.

Oh no, my dear. There are no absolutes in social milieu. Countless people have had terrible, horrendous and cruel upbringings and rise to become hallmarks of success and heroism in their communities. On the flip side, countless people are given every good gift humanity has to offer, including a loving and supportive family, and they become the bottom of the barrel nasty, hateful and unkind. No absolutes love--it doesn't work that way. Sorry, but though your thoughts would seem to make sense and have those outcomes, they sadly do not.

I agree with you sugar pie. I had a terrible childhood, in fact a good part of my life has been pretty bad but I am responsible for the outcome of my life. My parents had a lot to do with upsetting the apple cart but I worked hard to turn it around to be a productive person in society. I will never forget what my childhood was but I have to put it on the back burner or else I will be a negativity to people around me. Even with all the drama in my life I married and raised a child who is a productive member of society. She could probably find a few thing in her childhood that she didn't like....such as a curfew, being grounded when she didn't meet the curfew, etc. but she doesn't live her life around her past.
