: As a result--at least in America--there will be three types that will dominate our generation (known as "Generation X"). When a child is ambivalent to both parents, it will end up a four. When a child is ambivalent to the mother figure, it will end up a seven. When a child is ambivalent to the father figure, it will end up a two.
Dear Mercurio
You seem to be saying that childhood conditioning determines the Enneagram number.
I feel that one is born with a number and this can not be changed by the environment.
What our environment do to us is stress or destress us so that we take on the triats of other types.
Would you agree?
Boon.
