19. Common Protector Fears

    #1 Exiles will overwhelm or take over the system
    #2 Exiles can’t change; what’s done is done, there’s no point in going back
    #3 Going back will trigger dangerous firefighters
    #4 The practitioner won’t be able to handle the exiles; they’ll be repulsed or overwhelmed and reject the client
    #5 The protector (manager) will lose its job or be eliminated
    #6 Secrets will be exposed that either the internal or external system can’t handle
    #7 They need the protective cloak or the manager or fire fighter because without it they could become too needy or vulnerable
