Don’t Be You

This injunction can be

conveyed to a child by

parents who have a boy

when they wanted a girl

or vice versa. Their non

verbal message is “Don’t

be the sex you are”.

Page 4: Don't be you injunction

Don’t Be You

This may be reflected in the

choice of a name for the

child. Maybe a girl is called

Jacky or a boy is christened

Vivian. Parents may dress

their daughter in butch

clothes or their son in frilly

collars and bows.

Don’t Be You

In grown up life, the

person carrying “Don’t

be the sex you are” may

continue to cultivate the

dress or manners that

suggest the opposite sex.

Page 6: Don't be you injunction

Don’t Be You

Don’t be you may be

more general, and simply

convey “Don’t be you, be

some other child”.

Parents may prefer a

younger to an elder child

or a brother to a sister.

Don’t Be You

A mother feels rejecting

towards her child may

continually compare him

with other children : “Little

Johnny down the road can

ride a two wheeler bicycle –

isn’t he clever? And he is a

year younger than you are

too.”

Don’t Be You

Here, the parent may be

holding an image of the

ideal child she wishes.

She reacts positively

only to the aspects of

her actual child which

resemble that image,

and discounts the rest.

Parents may also make

statements like : “ You are

just like your no – good

uncle Harry.” Then, the

more the child acts like

Uncle Harry the more

strokes he gets.
