Carried inner selves like the Inner Patriarch and Inner Matriarch are "refugees"
from someone else's village
An influential but troublesome group in the inner village are the "carried" inner selves. Carried inner selves differ from all other kinds in that they do not even belong to us but to someone else. You carry them to help that other person! They really belong that person's inner village. However in early childhood carried inner selves move from another person, usually a parent, into a child’s village.
The child unconsciously helps make this happen to support the parent who is experiencing too much trouble by having them around. Hence the description of these inner selves as “carried” and as "refugees".
