Most of us have experienced the shadow parent. But how? Many people experience pain, difficulty and abuse at the hands of their parents. But many parents seem to be unaware of any suffering they may have caused their children, even if it was innocently done. How could they possibly not know the struggles they may have inflicted on their child?
Well, it may be that they did not want to see it or more likely they could not see it... because they parented from their shadow, from the space of unawareness. And most likely, it was because it was their own pain from their childhood that they were hiding from, never realizing they were hiding it from themselves and it would present itself to them through their parenting. It is highly likely, if you have children, that you are not aware of any suffering you may have caused your children.
When you learn to identify the shadow parent operative in your life, you will realize that it may go back many generations and you will find yourself at a crossroad... do I pass it on to the next generation or do I heal my family once and for all from the shadow parent?
Thank you for showing up. Many blessings.
