3. The script as magical solution
• The script offers a magical
solution for resolving the basic
issue that was unresolved in
childhood : how to get
unconditional love and
acceptance.
• As adults we have a hard time
letting go of that magic,
because as kids we often
identified with a fairy tale and
our fantasy is that if we make
our life go like the fairly tale,
we too can end up living
happily ever after.
4. The script as magical solution
• The only problem is that fairy
tales perpetrate a hoax on
kids They teach that if you
want to have something
good happen to you, you first
have to be big enough victim
to deserve it.
• The positive thing that fairy
tales do is to give kids a
sense of power and control
over their lives at a time
when they feel powerless.
