The Impact of Being Needed and Loved
A young father named Dave had suffered various forms of neglect as a child and was estranged from his family. In his twenties he suffered from clinical depression as well as severe loneliness, compounded by an early, unhappy marriage he entered into for reasons he says he does not fully understand to this day. Having his own child did not suddenly make those problems go away, but, as Dave said, “it showed me that I wasn't emotionally hopeless, or helpless.”
Dave talked about getting to know his son on the night the little boy was born, sitting in a rocking chair, holding the baby, and feeling a new beginning, a new life in which it was very clear who was supposed to take care of whom. The physiological sensations of close connection were a new, powerful incentive for him to open up, commit, and give. But things became penetratingly real at his son's first birthday party.
We had invited some other parents with little kids, and then other friends, so it was mostly a room full of grown-ups. My son seemed to be having a good time in his one-year-old sort of way, toddling around, hanging onto the furniture. My wife stepped into the kitchen to see about something, and I was keeping an eye on him, but for a minute there I could tell that he’d lost sight of me. This look of real concern came on his face as he scanned the room filled with very large people. He was definitely getting worried, and I could see that if this anxiety went on much longer he was probably going to start to cry. But then he spotted me, and he burst into this big grin, with maybe one or two teeth showing. He put up his arms and he took a step toward me and I reached down and scooped him up and I was about ready to cry myself. It was the weirdest thing, but I swear this was the first time in my whole damn life that I ever felt fully loved and fully accepted by anyone. I mean, here is this perfect little being, this beautiful little kid, and he is in a room surrounded by people. But he doesn't want just anybody. Of all the people standing around, he chooses me to connect with. He sees me and he's reassured. He sees me and he wants me to pick him up.
