Driven to meet needs:

▪ We are wired for survival.

▪ When our needs are not met well, we may be

driven to meet our needs in any way possible.

or are very important, they may show off, put

other people down or try to overpower others.

▪ When this happens, the person may not be even

be aware what is driving their unkindness:

it is normally subconscious.
