Acceptance of our reality at the ten stages need not be synonymous with capitulation, humiliating defeat.

Acceptance of our reality at the ten stages need not be synonymous with capitulation, humiliating defeat. There is a difference between accepting what is inescapable – like life, – and cowardly surrendering when you could have fought more. And acceptance need not mean losing your integrity – it can sometimes be quite the opposite. Acceptance is not betrayal of your old beliefs and coping strategies.We build into the stages the ideas of redundancy a gradual loosening of the grip we have on old outmoded survival strategies we have no need of in a recovered world.




Acceptance is about using the lessons we learned in at the stages to come to terms with the realities of the world, on our own child withins terms.
