<b>:: Healthy Selfishness ::</b><br>
<br>Conventional thinking has it that if children get "too<br>
much" of what they want, they'll become narcissistic<br>
adults who only care about themselves.<br>
<br>But this thinking is locked inside the box of the<br>
"dominator paradigm," where you "win" by exploiting,<br>
excluding, or defeating others. Outside the dominator<br>
box is PARTNERSHIP.<br>
<br>In partnership it's understood that we're all<br>
connected, so *your* wins are *my* wins, and vice<br>
versa. Children internalize partnership values<br>
when their parents believe that Love is abundant.<br>
Such parents tend to nurture generously and<br>
unconditionally.<br>
<br>Younger children are naturally narcissistic. When<br>
parents model the "healthy selfishness" of partnership<br>
and don't resist their children's narcissism, the<br>
children eventually learn that it feels good to care<br>
for others.<br>
<br>Today, notice all the ways in which *giving* makes you<br>
feel good, and how others feel good when you allow<br>
them to give to you. Let the line between giving and<br>
receiving dissolve. That's the magic of partnership!<br>
