Contracts and Limits
You love your children and you’d do anything for them. The bond you have with them includes an unspoken promise to love them, nourish them, and protect them.
Your children also have a silent loyalty agreement by which they pledge to follow rules, be faithful to your family, and exhibit behaviors that align with your expectations.
If only the trials and tribulations of parenting were this simple – but they’re not!
What makes parenting a challenge is that your children are the only ones who can push you to or beyond your limits.
If your boss pushes you to your limits. You can quit your job. If you’re in a relationship with a partner who pushes you past your limits – you can leave the relationship.
However, your children are your children for life. And when their behavior stretches you to your limits, you have no choice but to face the challenge and find a solution.

Breaking Your
Loyalty Contract
Breaking Your Loyalty Contract invites you to explore why issues stemming from unspoken loyalty contracts with your parents are reflected back to you through your child’s “misbehavior.” You’ll gain insight into why you think the way you think and develop the clarity you need to release your children and yourself from unreasonable expectations so you can thrive and flourish as a family.
The Answers You Seek Can Be Found In Your Past
In her long-awaited new book, Breaking Your Loyalty Contract: Shattering the Mirror Effect Between Parents and Children, child development expert Maria Steuer invites you to explore why issues from your own childhood are being reflected back to you through your child’s “misbehavior.”
For example, as a child you may have been discouraged from being a free thinker who developed your own ideas about how you wanted to live.
As a result, the unspoken loyalty contract you have with your parents may have motivated you to suppress your freethinking instincts and form a belief that “thinking outside the lines” of your parent’s expectations was bad behavior.
As a parent you may now recognize free thinking characteristics in your child and view them as “bad behavior” due to the subconscious loyalty contract you still have with your parents.
Set Yourself Free!
Breaking Your Loyalty Contract provides you with a set of mental tools and exercises you need to break the subconscious agreements you have with your parents.
This empowers you to take back aspects of your personality you surrendered to them as a child.
Doing this liberates you to be your true self and view your children through a prism of who they are, instead of seeing them through the prism of what your parents expected you to be.
By exploring your childhood and understanding why you think the way you think, you’ll gain the clarity you need to …
- Understand what’s in your subconscious blind spots as a parent (we all have them!)
- Ask self-questions that dissolve buried belief systems that have impeded your growth
- Recognize that what you view as faults in your children may actually be gifts
- Release your children and yourself from unreasonable expectations so you can thrive and flourish as a family
You’ll also gain a clear understanding that behavior exhibited by your child need not be labeled as “bad” simply because your parents labeled it as such when they saw it in you.

Crisp, Concise, To the Point
Maria Steuer has structured Breaking Your Loyalty Contract so its chapters are brief, to the point, and concise. In fact, the entire book can be read in a single setting.
This allows you to absorb and understand the probing lessons and tools shared by Maria more easily.
The compact format of Breaking Your Loyalty Contract also makes it simple to revisit and review chapters and sections that resonate with you most.
Know Your “Why”
and the “How” Will Follow
The beauty of Breaking Your Loyalty Contract is that it is definitely NOT a “how-to” parenting book.
How-to books usually offer cookie-cutter parenting solutions that tempt you to compare your results to those that can be achieved “according to the book.”
This can cause you to judge yourself too harshly and sway you to believe you’re not a good parent when in fact you are.
Instead, Breaking Your Loyalty Contract encourages you to explore your childhood to discover “why” you think the way you think as a parent.
At the moment you understand your “why” your “how to” method will flow into your heart and be uniquely your own.
Emotional Nourishment Is Vital
When you learn to release loyalty contracts with your parents that have tied you to limiting belief systems, you’ll be able to revitalize your relationships with your children.
As essential as nourishment, protection, and shelter are, what your kids really crave is a close emotional relationship with you that makes them feel loved unconditionally.
This is what sets the stage for a healthy frame of mind that can last them a lifetime.
Breaking Your Loyalty Contract is like a beautiful permission slip to explore your childhood and your family dynamic. The journey you undertake will be inspiring and transformative.
After you read this book you’ll feel certain in your ability to step away from generational regulations, well-intentioned advice, and family constraints.
When you do you’ll be free to make parenting your children the joyous journey it is meant to be.
I help you to bring your relationships to a new level.

“The book is very exciting with lots of eyeopeners. It’s great to understand the context of what my childhood has to do with how I act today. I know so much more about myself.”
-Per
“Since I have been trying to better understand my own behavior and deficits, I also understand my child’s behavior better and can deal with it much more calmly.
I no longer ask myself what is wrong with my children, but I ask myself more and more often what I can learn from their behavior. Now I grow on my children.”
– Aileen, mother of 3
“A super effective coaching for all situations in life. It has opened up new sides for me both professionally and privately that I would never have reached in this way. The coaching is very good and easy to implement in everyday life and immediately gives you a better “I”! Many thanks!”

I’ve been working with Maria Steuer for a while now and I can honestly say that she is a person of integrity. Her passion and knowledge of children is obvious and her ability to explain how my childhood affected my children throughout their lives was enlightening. It is wonderful working with her, and I expect a long and rewarding relationship with her.
