Overview"This book describes how the patterns that prevent forward progress in families can be changed. Because patterns travel through the language of the family, and language defines reality for these speakers, a framework is needed, so that linguistic legacies that affect development can be understood and overcome. Many families have inherited a speaking pattern which distorts reality for the family. The adults in these families, through their inherited language patterns, do not know how to instil in their offspring the basic conceptual information and affirmations considered necessary for optimal moral, cognitive, social, and psychological development. Unfortunately, in many cases, the language the children hear from significant others largely determines the potential for development in these children. The children hear and learn defective language patterns, ensuring further dysfunction in succeeding generations. Because of the emotional pain incurred in the interactions in dysfunctional families, these families become ""trauma organised"". (Betovim) The pattern of behaviour that causes trauma is called ""transgenerational dysfunction"". The book provides intervention into these complex problems."
