This month's parenting quote is by Alice Miller, a Swiss psychologist and philosopher. She is best remembered for her book The Drama of the Gifted Child.

"It is very difficult for people to believe the simple fact that every persecutor was once a victim. Yet it should be very obvious that someone who was allowed to feel free and strong from childhood does not have the need to humiliate another person."
