✅ Summary - 

For Your Own Good: Hidden Cruelty in Child-Rearing and the Roots of Violence (1983) is a seminal work by Swiss psychoanalyst Alice Miller that examines the long-term psychological and societal damage caused by traditional, authoritarian parenting. Miller challenges the standard belief that physical and emotional discipline is "for the child's own good," arguing instead that such practices—which she terms "poisonous pedagogy"—are the primary source of lifelong suffering and violence.
