        This nonprofit, educational Web site exists to alert you to a toxic personal and family stressor - a cycle of [psychological wounds + unawareness] that silently passes down our genera-tions and weakens our culture. This cycle promotes widespread social problems like abuse, neglect, divorce, crime,  abortions, addictions, bigotry, runaways, terrorism, gangs, homelessness, obesity, depression, suicide, and murder. Have any of these affected your family? 

         From 30 years' clinical experience and study, the site offers you an effective way to break the cycle, and reduce major personal, marital, and family problems. To understand and break the cycle, you'll' need to:

  • this introduction to the [wounds + unawareness] cycle,
