About this deal

Dumbledore also points out a couple times that it was rather useful in stopping Harry from becoming full of himself due to being exposed to his ridiculous level of fame at a too-early age. Of course instead of an inflated ego he got outright abuse, so this feels more like a minor positive than an actual reasonable justification. In traditional societies and primitive societies it is not like this. Children are an unavoidable result, they are not a planned facade. With excellent pacing and smooth, well timed movement between the different characters in the story, she keeps the reader fully engaged and fascinated, waiting for the next twist this story will take. Samantha Downing has made For Your Own Good almost impossible to put down!” By Anglo-American standards, I feel that most French, at least most Parisians, would be considered autistic.

Two different versions of this are brought up in in regards to Harry's return to his ridiculously unfit guardians every summer: Hermione also uttered some variant of this when Harry and Ron demanded to know why she turned the Firebolt over to Professor McGonagall for stripping. The ways we can get this social and civil standing is by taking publicly visible actions which benefit survivors, punish perpetrators, and which can protect the next would be victims. We need to engage in public political and legal actions, not be debating about therapy, healing, and recovery.

for (one's) (own) good

The FYOG in these sentiments is often more implied than explicitly stated, yet there it is. And that second brand of ‘for your own good’ can be especially painful. At least when we knowingly go forth into battle with our enemies, we can prepare, mental shields raised in expectation. But, when we approach our self-proclaimed allies with our soft spots showing and they thrust the sword in, it hurts all the more. It also more than fairly qualifies as “providersplaining.”

So you can get drugs on the street. Or you can get drugs from the Mental Health System. But none of these do anything to restore your social and civil standing. So because of his books and advocacy, parents are driving their kids to the doctor right now. Autism-Asperger’s has been a phenomenal gold strike, and child predators are booming the find in every way which you could imagine. I still know that Sami Timimi and his co-authors are correct, “Autism does not exist”. But the French Psychoanalytic approach is still a big step up from the American interpretation. No, NONE of this was “for [my] own good.” I wouldn’t say this was an effective means of “getting help — don’t be afraid to speak up and ask, it’s for your own good,” our culture advises people, recommending they speak up and seek treatment if they’re in a bad place. This was no good at all.This was “good” for my company, who probably feared a lawsuit because I’d complained about the hostile work environment prior to them referring me to the EAP to get help with “[my] stress issues.” I was advised by a lawyer I consulted with to litigate for discrimination, harassment, libel, and wrongful termination and file a complaint with the EEOC. I am very angry about what happened to me. I feel like I have NO rights and it’s terrifying. I feel that this book has given me a concrete understanding of the cyclical effects of child abuse and subsequent repression. In an ideal world this book would be read by everyone, not just parents, prospective parents, or psychoanalysts/therapists, because it answers (from one angle) the question of where delinquent behaviour and violence from authority figures (church, state, parents) comes from.

For my own good, because society has clear rules and expectations about what is socially acceptable, and I can’t risk my reputation or job.” For my own good, because it’s listed in your treatment plan, and my boss will blame me if you don’t.” I’ve been working hard over the years to shift that which led me into all of this to begin with, and that not only grows me in my awareness, it changes my entire reality while opening new pathways by which I can move forward. That is how I apply what I have said in this thread, to this situation. It’s complex and layered, but that is my inner work, and to me, it all adds up with good clarity and a new big picture, which serves the greater good, rather than the “elite class,” at everyone else’s expense. From my perspective, in any event, I can feel this.We cannot win all battles. But we should be able to win some, that is unless we decide to not even try. In that case we will never be able to win any. Perhaps I sound a tad melodramatic, but this is the sort of attitude that can chip away at one’s soul. Ultimately, FYOG takes many shapes: Teddy really can’t be bothered with a few mysterious deaths on campus that are looking more and more like murder,or with the student digging a little too deep into Teddy’s personal life. His main focus is pushing these kids to their full academic potential.

But I absolutely agree, the psychologists and psychiatrists “see nothing wrong with child exploitation.” Covering up all forms of child exploitation, including child rape, is the primary actual societal function of our “mental health” industries, and apparently has been for over a century. For your own good” even bleeds invisibly into the ways we use language. That comes in two different flavors: Hostile and ally. For example: Why are you slamming me down on the ground and restraining me, when it’s you I’m trying to escape?”
