*LIFE LIBERTY AND THE PURSUIT OF ANGER*

The term Emotional Incest (also known as covert incest or psychic incest)

describes a relationship between parents and children that is sexualized, without actual incest/sexual contact.

The relationships are harmful and one-sided, and similar to a relationship between adult sexual partners

but without the type of physical contact that would qualify it as child sexual abuse.
