Chapter 13, the weight of a whole tribal or family historical tradition has to be lifted, as in the case of Margaret Mead"s villagers in New Guinea;1 then the influence of the individual parental, social and cultural background has to be thrown off. The same must be done with the demands of contemporary society at large, and finally the advantages derived from one"s immediate social circle have to be partly or wholly sacrificed. Then all the easy indulgences and rewards of being a Sulk or a Jerk, as described in Chapter 14, have to be given up.

He is then ready for game-free relationships such as that ill.u.s.trated in the paradigm in Chapter 15. At this point he may be able to develop his capacities for autonomy. In essence, this whole preparation consists of obtaining a friendly divorce from one"s parents (and from other Parental influences) so that they may be agreeably visited on occasion, but are no longer dominant.
