[quote=Anonymous]Which is why I have often remarked to my kids that it's hard finding a therapist that doesn't indirectly blame parents. The worse thing a patient can do is misinterpret their therapist's suggestions and put all the blame on a parental figure without understanding that they have to do the work to heal, regardless of what they went through in the past. We tried a couple's therapist once: instead of talking about respectful communication, rules for fighting fairly, etc, all she wanted to talk about was my husband's parents and their perceived dysfunction. He of course was happy to talk about them so that we didn't have to do the hard work of fixing our actual problems. Utter waste of time and money. [/quote]
