When you have children, you die and another person is born. A person born through the need of other beings have to make a shift concerning this. I didn´t let go of my dreams, though, I just changed them for others.
Your child’s needs become indivisible from yours, obviously.
not entirely, no. A parent (more than often mothers) can easily forget that she is in fact a separate being with separate needs. This is just as bad for the child as it is for the parent.
You’re right. The opposite can also happen – the selfishness of my dad’s mother, for example, did him great damage.
