Also this seems to point that all external influences are wrong or bad and you need to get rid of them to fin your real self.

I had a great childhood and had parents and faith that prepared me for the world ahead. Many of my influences and the world I dealt with were positive in shaping who I am, not some negative that I need to reboot from childhood.
