Such parents, interestingly enough, are usually very accepting toward people in general. Being accepting is a characteristic of their own personality -- their inner security, their high tolerance level, the fact that they like themselves, the fact that their feelings about themselves are quite independent of what happens around them, and a host of other personality variables." -- Gordon, P.E.T. pages 16-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e3394ee4b0c76cfdc5ce16/1472454499931-ORJY0SDXZY3XDBSOVVSJ/image-asset.jpeg the acorn within "p.e.t. vitamins" blog - Off to College https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52e3394ee4b0c76cfdc5ce16/1472423992972-5AHQSVPNPFN3GA9JXDOY/image-asset.png the acorn within "p.e.t. vitamins" blog - Off to College "[Some] parents, as persons, are just plain unaccepting toward others . . .
