A more thorough explanation:

Leges publicae were laws passed by the Roman people in popular assemblies. These laws were temporary and were usually passed to address political issues of the time. However, some leges publicae, such as the lex Aquilia or the lex Falcidia, had a long-lasting impact.

Nah, the fucked up thing about therapists is they try and make you think your parents are your enemy 99% of the time and really they should be telling you that your parents have almost no effect on the rest of your life. If they can get you to keep focusing on your parents they can keep making money.
