Collaborative Recovery
Full recovery from the illness that is private violence by nature, is a healing of the individual and the extended family and society that contains the individual. The disease that transfigures the human identity and behavior also transfigures the shape and character of the family and society.
The isolated nuclear family format, in itself, can be understood to be an expression of the disease, forming a perfect medium for contagion. The societal institution of the criminal justice system can be understood as an expression of the disease, forming a perfect medium for incubation.
To complete immunities for individuals against the disease of acquired unconsciousness, the whole body is treated; society and the institutions reconfigure to be part of the holistic solution.
The strength of the private violence virus is in behavior that is not private. Report silencing by co-offenders takes many forms and is often accepted as teaching children good manners or good behavior.
Reception blocking is by nature public, in that it necessarily involves at least one third party in conversation. Reception blocking can be as public as television newscasts or published documents.
The blocking of response options for those most at risk is woven into the institutions of marriage or child custody and our general economic system. In a family or community seeking health from the illness, the public behaviors that enable private violence can be corrected by simple identification and mutual support in the consensual goal. The virus finds no niche in which to take hold.
One improvement in circumstances that sets the healing circle in motion is membership in a community that has deliberate commitment by all members for all members to have unobstructed access to privacy. Privacy is space wherein one is free of unwanted interference by another.
Intact privacy is a successful cellular response to an invading microbe. Intact interpersonal privacy within families is accomplished with the community ambiance that parallels a fully functioning immune system. Members make the unanimous commitment to defend privacy for all human members. Behaviors that defend the inhuman viral pattern are rejected.
A key to achieving privacy is in the words “unwanted interference”. One judges for one’s self what is unwanted interference, and what is wanted interaction. Privacy is not necessarily solitude, and is certainly not isolation. Forced isolation is interference in one’s connection with the community of life.
Creating privacy for children usually means creating spaces for groups of children in which their particular concerns are paramount. Privacy for babies can be supported by setting up spaces such that there is no reason for anyone to frustrate healthy exploratory behavior.
Privacy for parents (from their children) can be defended if other people are nearby to provide for the children when the parent needs solitude or only adult companionship. If a collection of families develops the consensus intent to defend privacy for all members, certain changes in the traditional allocation of physical spaces may take place to assist in accomplishing the goal. In addition to, and as adjuncts to each nuclear family home, designated community peer circle spaces may be set up and maintained. As a simple example, imagine a “community center” building within a cluster of houses.
If interpersonal safety (intact privacy) for anyone, in relation to anyone else, is to be defended, all people involved must have manifest access to their own private space from which they may eject anybody else, at any time, for any reason or no reason.
To increase successful defense of privacy for all members, appropriate peer circle spaces may be set up with attending peer circle dominion for boys and for girls, for adults only, for men and for women. Unobstructed privacy for all means that any may go to their private space (within their immediate family home) or peer circle space (within the community home) at any time, and stay there as long as they wish.
Using the intact city block model eliminates the obstruction to small children that crossing streets would necessarily entail. Safe access could be further increased by eliminating barriers between back yards, and fencing the entire arrangement as one unit.
Public housing could manage all this. Another arrangement would be to place the cluster of homes and peer circle spaces in a non urban setting, making use of natural barriers to preclude public exposure.
With established avenues of retreat, persons may remove themselves from risk when a viral pattern begins to present. With established access to privacy and to peer companionship, the process of recovering report and improving synthesis can take place.
With the empowerment of dependents to secure privacy at their will, formerly undetectable (thus chronic) patterns of inhuman behavior in their caretakers can rise to the surface. The children locked inside us all can receive the conscious healing attention of the collaborative community.
