That is really interesting information. I remember every time my mother used to take me shopping, she would only let me get clothes that were a certain material and color otherwise I would "ruin them". She also never let me finish any creative projects or experiments, they were always over ridden with shameful remarks on how I was doing everything completely wrong. I have a lot of examples of situations like that. She habitually insisted on doing everything for me. I was slightly aware of all of it but this post really helped shed some light on the subject for me.
Do you have any other resources for Infantilization? Also how did this knowledge help you to increase your self efficiency?
Thanks!
