In reply to Do you think its possible..., posted by muffled on September 21, 2006, at 1:02:38
I could tell you all the reasons I don't think so -- from animal models to my own memories of what excised mine -- but I think it's easier and clearer just to say, "No, I don't believe it's possible to be born without self esteem. I believe that self esteem is strengthened or weakened by experiences in life, and that it's possible to have quite threadbare self esteem by the age of 7 or 8."
I'm sorry things were and are rough for you, Muffled.
