I am in parent contamination when I
mistake parental slogans for adult reality.
These are taught beliefs that are taken as
facts. Berne call this prejudice. When a
person is speaking about herself and say
you instead of I, it is likely that the
content of what follows will be parent
contaminated.
• The world is a bad place.
• People cant be trusted.
• If at first you don’t succeed, try,
try, try again.

“ The difference between a conviction and
a prejudice is that you can explain a
conviction without getting angry.”
Samuel Butler

• Parental contaminations often
involve considerable emotions and
are likely to occur in relation to
specific subjects such as food,
religion, politics, race, class and
sex.
• At times, large segments of society
agree with prejudiced ideas.
• Contaminations often intrudes on
the laws of society.

• Take two minutes to write down all the
slogans and beliefs you remember hearing
from your parents and parental figures.
• Look through you list of parental slogans
and beliefs. Check whether each one is a
statement of reality or a parent
contamination.
• If you decide there are any you want to
update to fit with grown up reality, strike
them out and substitute your new version.
