Horney, for instance, notes the conflict which may occur between dependence on parents and anger toward them. The child develops toward decreasing dependence on parents and increasing use of own powers, and toward progressive relating to parents and others on new levels. When either of these kinds of development is blocked, it produces psychological conflict which results in anxiety. Anxiety gives rise to hostility. For example, a dependent person, finding herself in a position of responsibility with which she feels she cannot cope, reacts with hostilitytoward those who have placed her in the situation and toward those who caused her to be unable to cope with it.
Freedom always involves social responsibility.
It occurs within the context of a perception of limits. The self always exists in a world. The capacity to confront limits is part of freeedom. Subordination strikes at the core of human dignity of the master as well as the slave. Slavery destroys the freedom of both.
