When Claude Steiner and the late Eric Berne developed the theory of Transactional Analysis, their basic belief that people were -born princes and princess, until their parents turned them into frogs- countered the fundamental principle of psychiatry which asserts that emotional and mental distress comes from within. In Scripts People Live, Steiner expands upon this belief to show that people are innately healthy but develop a pattern early in life based upon negative or positive influences of those around them. Thus children decide, however unconsciously, whether they will be happy or depressed, winners or failures, strong or dependent, and having decided, they spend the rest of their lives making the decision come true. For those who choose a negative script, the consequences can be disastrous unless they make a conscious decision to change.
