Now I want to turn Structural Analysis into Functional Analysis by drawing a line to divide C1 into two parts.
The top half becomes the Functional Adapted Child
composed of the storehouse of the rules of relationship in childhood with part of the “Little Professor.”
The bottom half becomes the Functional Natural Child
composed of the Natural Child and part of the “Little Professor.”
Now we have the beginning of the functional diagram of the
Functional Natural Child and the Functional Adapted Child
Function is about what the ego-states do
Structure is about what the ego-states are
I work with a small set of “not rocket science” ideas
about the minimum sets of functional and dysfunctional behaviors.
Therefore I have distilled a lot of theory into a
simplified and reduced set of ideas and concepts applied to getting out
of trouble and staying out of
trouble. |
