How the programs and patterns parents and adults are stuck in are passed down to children

I dreamed the following on the 13th (Dec.):

"I'm giving a session about how the programs and patterns we as parents and adults are basically stuck in are given (passed down) to children. How this was done via meaning. We basically hand down our world view to children by and via what we tell them ("teach") them things mean; and what we believe are the causal links between things.

This is done for instance even what an object means. For instance i will subtly make my son worship cars, if cars are the most important things for me. The problem is that all the wrong links and beliefs are passed down to our children.Basically what we call education is simply engraining into our children and the children our outlook and beliefs about the world.

If we believe all men are untrustworthy and promiscuous, we will subtly and tacitly pass this belief down to our children. If we deep down feel we are not good enough we will make our sons and daughters feel this.

A woman in the session got quite frantic at realizing the magnitude and gravity of this problem of how we were passing down all the wrong beliefs and meaning to our children and was affraid this could never be corrected. I said: "Don't worry...the fact that we are here doing this means that we are going to change this...". (end of dream)
