Vengeful childSuppose that as a child, I

decided I was more

comfortable blaming

others for not – Ok

occurrences than blaming

myself. In that case, I may

rapidly shift to the third

position on the

miniscript, the blamer.

Vengeful child

Here, my life position is “

I am OK, you are not OK”.

I will experience a racket

feeling that fits with this

blaming life position.

Vengeful child

For example, as I stumble

over my words during the

party conversation, I may

feel irritated with the

others in the group

because they don’t seem

to have understood me.

Vengeful child

When Taibi Kahler first

drew the miniscript,

he called this third

position “Vengeful

child”.

Vengeful child

However, the I+U- life position

may be expressed functionally

from negative controlling

parent as well as from

negative adaptive child, so we

think that Kahler’s revised

name “Blamer” is more

appropriate.
