"Deeply Damaged" is a culmination of Dr. Ney's many years of research into the effects of child mistreatment and of abortion. His data indicates that those who were mistreated as children are more likely to have abortions, and that statistically, those who have abortions are more likely to abuse or neglect their children. He believes that a combination of childhood mistreatment, being an abortion survivor and having an abortion results in the deepest damage to the person. Consequently, any attempt to treat these combined assaults must be done very carefully. This book is also the theoretical basis for the "Hope Alive" treatment program. Using metaphors to explain some of the concepts in his Psychology of Created Humanity, Dr. Ney sees a child as both builder and building. God the Creator, provides each child with a blueprint Every child is determined to build according to his/her blueprint, and seeks to find the building supplies from parents. Neglect occurs whenever the child does not get good quality building materials in the right quantity at the right time. Abuse occurs when somebody partially destroys the lovely little building as it is being created. Thus, neglect is more damaging than abuse. There are good arguments to support the thesis that evil seeks to incite people to destroy each other, especially by dehumanising and scapegoating children. When the young are destroyed there is little chance the species can survive. Abortion and childhood mistreatment damage everyone. Humans are tightly bound in the bundle of life. What they do to others, they do to themselves. Thus abortion and childhood mistreatment are destructive not only to the scapegoated children but also to parents, siblings, physicians, Government and judiciary. Though this book is both informative and challenging, not everyone will appreciate the wisdom within. It presents a reasonably cohesive theory of human development and mistreatment, a theory that is well supported by research and documented observations. Dr. Arthur Hartwig, Brisbane, Australia
