过度放纵是对建设性关注的剥夺，拒绝教授社交/生活技能，拒绝在社交情况下教自我调节，拒绝教导如何区分需求和需求。欲望沉迷于需求饥饿的地方。
(Overindulgence is a deprivation of constructive attention, a refusal to teach social/life skills, a refusal to teach self-regulation in social situations, a refusal to teach how to distinguish between wants and needs. Desires are indulged at the place where needs are starved.)
