A Tactic to Avoid Change. Neglectful and abusive women desire a confession be interpreted by others as an intention to be responsible. Nothing could be further from the truth. She think that reporting her violations makes them acceptable. This is clearly seen when she is appalled if someone expects her to face the consequences of a confessed violation. She may claim that She should be immune from all penalties for the harm she has caused because she was honest. However, the confession often is only a small part of the truth. She may confess small infractions to help conceal major infractions.
