Alice   Miller
“Child abuse is still sanctioned — indeed, held in high regard — in our society as long as it is defined as child-rearing. It is a tragic fact that parents beat their children in order to escape the emotions from how they were treated by their own parents.”
Alice Miller, The Drama of the Gifted Child: The Search for the True Self

Bernardine Evaristo
“You do not raise a child without becoming an expert in the non-verbal signals they think you are too stupid to see”
Bernardine Evaristo, Girl, Woman, Other
