015: psychological generalizations

Without going into all the normal and abnormal details of an American childhood in the late fifties and early sixties, let it be said that Son’s trajectory through life was formed by two psychological generalizations he discovered in a few years of therapy way back in the early nineties.

First, his mother was afraid of the world. Second, his father did not really introduce him to the world.

At least that's the story being told here.

Please understand these two pyschological generalizations are not offered here as excuses or reasons for Son being one way or another; they were actually the greatest gifts his parents gave him, and he honors them for their generosity.
