[15] Stekel, W., in The Homosexual Neurosis (Boston, 1922) says: “The evil effects produced upon the child witnessing marital bickerings, the household inspiration it receives with regard to judgment-feelings about women and men, the decisive manner in which parents affect it when they transfer their conflicts on the child—these capital facts the life histories of homosexuals given above illustrate very clearly for anyone willing to look squarely at the truth. We do not yet appreciate how careful we must be in our relations with the children. Our educators are still guilty of a serious blunder when they conceive their duty to be to instil goodness in the child through the instrumentality of fear. There are only two educational levers: one’s own example and—love. The healthiest children come from happy marriages. It is love that determines whether a marriage shall be a happy one and whether the offspring will be healthy or weak. The unconscious sexual instinct manifesting itself in love is the guide for the regeneration of the human race. Social conditions favouring early love marriages are the only social reform to which I look for results.” (Page 316.)
