“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

I am speaking of the past. Now he cannot stand to feel loyalty divided. He must feel his complete loyalty to you or to another. He cannot seem to divide the two. When he is with you, his loyalty is yours. When he is with the grandfather, however, he relates to those characteristics that are like yours. Any characteristics that are different upset him and frighten him. They confuse his sense of loyalty and he feels that he is supposed to relate to the grandfather as a male image when he is away from you. He feels that this will hurt you, but more than this, it makes him feel insecure. We will try to go deeper into it for you. The hesitation, however, is translated into the speech mechanism.

Now there is some sense of jealousy in the family over the child that the child senses and this, also, has to do with his sense of hesitation in speech. I will try to give you more specific information. Do you follow me thus far? The child is presently caught in a dilemma of divided loyalties. You should particularly make sure that you allow him psychic freedom and not emotionally bind him.

That would be a help, indeed. The speech defect has to do with the projection of divided loyalties within the family.
