Introduction
While reading the Homecoming: Reclaiming and Championing Your Inner Child by John Bradshaw, it has given me great detail into how the wounded inner child will affect someone as they grow into adulthood. It gives you insight, on how to conquer and overcome your wounds that you had growing as a child and how to work through those emotions, so you don’t turn into the person you feared the most, in your childhood.
How a wounded inner child begins. As John Bradshaw states in his book, all wounded children carry their wounds with them into adulthood. If a child is still struggling and not healing from their childhood, they will produce those actions and emotions throughout their life until they have gone through the healing process. The more we know about our childhood and wonder where our creativity and imagination went to, they more we do our best as adults to get it all back. There are ways to prevent our wounded inner child from tagging along in our adulthood, as well as, into our own families and to our children.
