Ruburt is learning much to his advantage in the present circumstances regarding your own parents. The affair allows him to make comparisons, to compare and evaluate present events with past ones. To discharge, and then examine, emotional responses that have lain latent.

In a new crisis situation, in facing a present crisis squarely and dealing with it in adult terms, he may indeed free himself largely; for the present situation through association brings up highly charged emotional energies that have been stopped up and causing difficulty.

It is highly necessary then that his present course be maintained, expressing his emotions honestly to himself and to you; and examining them, if he prefers, afterward, then taking with you whatever steps are necessary in your family situation.

This is the adult’s chance to understand and emotionally exorcise parental ghosts from the child’s past. They will be viewed in the light of the present, brought up because of your family’s dilemma, to the light of day.

He is slightly worried about the social-worker appointment. Let him acknowledge it freely, you see. Then any old fears become present, and are subject to solutions that the adult finds.

The old panic is being dispelled through the present situation with your parents. At a lesser degree of development this would not be the case. Both your father and your mother subconsciously know your position and Ruburt’s. Subconsciously they both know that this good is coming from their own situation.
