“We have been taught to wish for it, but the wish to be understood may be our most vengeful demand, may be the way we hang on, as adults , to our grudge against our mothers; the way we never let our mothers off the hook for their not meeting our every need. Wanting to be understood, as adults, can be our most violent form of nostalgia.” WayWantNeedsMayFormMotherWishUnderstandingPsychologyDemandUnderstoodAdultsMeetingsNostalgiaViolentHookVengeanceGrudgeVengeful Author:Adam Phillips
