A quick definition of reciprocal contract:

A reciprocal contract is an agreement between two or more parties where each party agrees to do something in exchange for the other party's agreement to do something else. It is also known as a bilateral contract. The agreement creates obligations that can be enforced by law. A contract can be a written document, but it is the agreement between the parties that is legally binding, not the document itself.

A more thorough explanation:

A reciprocal contract is a type of bilateral contract where two parties agree to perform certain actions or provide something of value to each other. This type of contract creates mutual obligations that are enforceable by law.

For example, if John agrees to sell his car to Jane for $10,000, and Jane agrees to pay John $10,000 for the car, this is a reciprocal contract. Both parties have agreed to perform certain actions (John to sell the car, Jane to pay for it) and both parties have obligations that are enforceable by law.

Another example of a reciprocal contract is a lease agreement. The landlord agrees to provide a place to live for the tenant, and the tenant agrees to pay rent for the use of the property. Both parties have obligations that are enforceable by law.

Reciprocal contracts are important because they create a sense of trust and fairness between the parties involved. Each party knows what they are expected to do, and they can rely on the other party to fulfill their obligations. If one party fails to fulfill their obligations, the other party can take legal action to enforce the contract.

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.
