The slightest misstep for these children\u00a0seems to destine them for anger, disappointment, or even rejection. A\u00a0&#8220;fragile self&#8221; develops and the child is filled with strong but ambivalent emotions. Sometimes they feel intense love, sometimes intense hate. A person with an ambivalent attachment style evolves from an emotionally brittle climate that revolves around two opposing poles: one of living on borrowed time and that at any moment they will be left on\u00a0their own to fend for themselves,\u00a0or one of being smothered in hugs and good feelings and knowing\u00a0they have never lived in a better, more caring environment. There is the momentary assurance of believing that no one who loves this much could ever leave them.\u00a0 If you or someone you know may need counseling, please contact Lamar Hunt Jr. or see his website at <a href=\"http:\/\/lamarhuntjrcounseling.com\/\">http:\/\/lamarhuntjrcounseling.com\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The problem with being a &#8220;people\u00a0pleaser&#8221; is that no one can please everyone all the time and children who try to do this walk through their childhoods as if on eggshells.
