The Child’s Goal: Article based on the works of L. Ron Hubbard

If he is taught sufficiently that his growing up is something that will result in a bad state of affairs for him and that the desirable thing is to remain a child, he has been robbed of the one goal which would carry him forward.

You cannot overestimate the effect this has on a child. You look around in the society and you will find that children who have received too large a bonus for being children are those who are progressing least satisfactorily. All the concentration in the whole family is given to the child, and the child is given importance, as a child, way out of relationship to importance as an adult.
