Genetics is largely responsible which knowledgeable counselors such as John Bradshaw or Patrick Carnes refer to as The Sins Of The Fathers or Family Secrets.
Dysfunctional families produce one addict after another.
Addicts commit up to 80% of all the violent crime & violence in America.
Unfortunately America's Civic Leaders are to caught up with politics to recognize just how serious this problem really is.
They do not like to talk about this problem for fear of losing votes & their political power.
Politicians blame everything that has gone wrong in America on everything but dysfunctional families.
Individual American parents are the real problem.
You will never get the right answer until you ask the right question.
If & when America's Civic Leaders start recognizing the American dysfunctional family as the root cause of most of America's woes positive changes will begin to take place on the family level.
Children learn from their primary care takers & become who & what they really are based on how they are raised.
Monkey see monkey do is the real problem.
If dad is a real asshole junior will more than likely grow up to be a real asshole just like dad.
What America really needs is recovery.
Recovery one person at a time is the only known solution to the dysfunctional family problem.
If all of America's Civic Leaders would enter themselves into a program of recovery whether they think they need it or not that would certainly be a positive step towards necessary change.
Imagine politicians talking about how dysfunctional they used to be & how they are now after working recovery programs.
Admitting they were nothing more then con men & floor flushers by necessity.
Imagine honest politicians giving up all their secrets & admitting their wrong doings?
That would certainly give their followers the incentive to give up all their secrets which bind them in guilt & shame & prevent them from being all they can be.
People all over America would begin to stop playing the blame game & start to take a good look at themselves.
They would start taking responsibility for themselves & their own behavior.
Think of how nice it would be if all Americans would work together to achieve personal recovery on the individual level.
.
If you have taken that step & gotten yourself into a program of recovery we applaud you.
Your personal efforts have just made America a better place.
Urge your political leaders to do the same.
There is no other way to achieve positive change in America.
The dysfunctional family is the real problem & that will never change.
