charged and as nobody, including the child, really knows what
               they  are  about,  they  induce  a  series  of  reactions.  The  child
               explodes and the adult reacts, causing the child to react and so
               on, all the time getting further from the issue that is the root
               cause of this event. These situation usually end with the child
               packing it true feeling away again, until the next time

               These are very unsatisfactory outcomes and should the adults
               in  this  situation  even  call  in  the  Godparent  as  an  arbitrator
               then thing might be different. Often a religious is called upon
               to help quell the outburst and this can cause greater incitement
               to  more  violent  behaviour.  The  religious  will  hide  their
               inability  in  such  situations,  often  blaming  “bad  spirits”  for
               influencing the child rather than realising that it is the human
               alienation of “good Spirits” that is the basis for this trauma the
               child is suffering.



               By the ninth year in a child's life, the "dye has been cast", yet
               all is not lost. Everything in creation is subject to cycles, the
               cycles of days, seasons, sun and moon. Any one cycle has an
               effect  in  all  other  cycles.  Human  life  is  a  cycle  and  is
               influenced by all other cycles, including other human cycles.
               One cannot live a human life any other way and cannot shut
               out the influences that these cycles have upon us. The critical
               issue  is  how  we  treat  and  use  these  influences.  Inspiration
               comes in many forms also and again can be used as we see fit.
               This is where spiritual awareness comes into play. If we are
               aware  then  we  will  use  these  influences  and  inspirations
               appropriately, as tools to further our spiritual advancement, to
               fulfil our life purpose. Should we be separated from our spirit
