I love my child I love my mother so much 00:00:00
I love my child I love my mother so much that I couldn't survive if anything 00:00:04
happened to them it's like you have some 00:00:06
serious thinking to do about that it's 00:00:09
like you really want to curse someone 00:00:12
with that kind of love do you I couldn't 00:00:13
live without you it's like my god get 00:00:15
away from me 00:00:19
really it's terrible that's the eatable 00:00:20
mother right that's like I'll forgive 00:00:23
you no matter what you do it's like 00:00:26
really you no matter what I do eh 00:00:27
you are not my friend that's for sure 00:00:30
not at all it's a horrible thing to do 00:00:33
to someone that's that's the witch in 00:00:36
the Hansel and Gretel story all 00:00:39
gingerbread and outside to the lost kid 00:00:42
inside you feed them candy and make them 00:00:44
fat and eat them right that's Hansel and 00:00:47
Gretel that's the eatable mother that's 00:00:50
one of Freud's major discoveries it gets 00:00:52
a major discovery it's like the 00:00:54
devouring force of love you want the 00:00:56
person to be able to stand on their own 00:00:59
and price you pay for that is that you 00:01:01
stand on your own it's like good to have 00:01:02
you around I'm glad you're here but if 00:01:05
if tragedies win and if and when tragedy 00:01:08
strikes either of us I hope that one of 00:01:11
us is standing when it blows past and 00:01:13
and that there's a harshness about that 00:01:15
that's unbelievably cruel because you 00:01:18
know you say well if my mother died I 00:01:20
could live well what kind of monster are 00:01:21
you exactly 00:01:24
death of your mother doesn't do you in 00:01:25
well turns out that being a monster is 00:01:27
the right thing so and that's a rough 00:01:29
thing to learn but it's necessary to 00:01:33
learn you know because it also makes you 00:01:36
you know at some point for example as 00:01:38
you get older mm-hmm 00:01:40
by the time you're in your mid-20s 00:01:41
something like that you should start 00:01:43
having a relationship with your parents 00:01:47
that's approximately one of peers and 00:01:48
you can tell if you have that so here's 00:01:51
a little trick you can use so you have 00:01:54
parents obviously they have friends you 00:01:56
probably care what your parents think I 00:01:58
would imagine do you care what their 00:02:00
friends think of you and answer that is 00:02:01
well not nearly as much and so then I 00:02:04
would say well why do you care what your 00:02:06
parents think of you then they're the 00:02:07
same people you know what I mean it's 00:02:09
just luck of the draw that you're 00:02:11
parents or someone else's kids friends 00:02:13
they don't think the same way about them 00:02:16
that you do that's where you see that 00:02:18
you have a projection right if by the 00:02:19
time you're 30 if what your parents 00:02:21
think of you matters more than what say 00:02:23
a random set of their friends think of 00:02:25
you then you've still got your parents 00:02:27
confused with with God that's one way of 00:02:29
looking at it you've still got them 00:02:31
confused with an archetype and you're 00:02:33
still a child and you might think well 00:02:35
it's pretty damn rude not to think about 00:02:37
what your parents think of you anymore 00:02:38
not to care it's like yeah it's kind of 00:02:39
rude but maybe you'll be useful for them 00:02:42
when they get old and that's a much 00:02:43
better form of caring it's like you're 00:02:46
going to be independent enough and 00:02:48
strong enough and and detached enough so 00:02:49
that when the taught when the when the 00:02:52
power dynamic shifts which it will that 00:02:54
you'll be the person that can carry 00:02:58
things forward well you can't do a 00:03:00
better thing for them than that right 00:03:02
that's the best of all possible outcomes 00:03:04
for your parents 00:03:05
