Mellody traces the origins of co-dependency back to childhood, describing a whole range of emotional, spiritual, intellectual, physical, and sexual abuses. Because of these earlier experiences, co-dependent adults often lack the skills necessary to lead mature lives and have satisfying relationships. Recovery from co-dependence is achieved by learning to reparent oneself. Central to Mellody's concept is the idea of the 'precious child' (inner child) that needs healing.
