    Unfortunately, this article is too true. Thank goodness I am retired and don't have to deal with so much that I had to endure in the past. You can't imagine how difficult it could be. I was a hard worker, but every day, I was certain I was going to happen.

    This article doesn't even begin to get into the real issue of authority figure fear . PEOPLE who grew up with their entire childhood filled with fear because of a parent's PTSD from the war, and unpredictable burst of temper or violence. Never harming the children, but the threat was always there of something awful about to happen. This article is overly simplistic and does not help anyone who suffers from this fear of authority figures.
