honestly loved this book. super insightful and very easy to read. i will be recommending it to everyone

I’m a big fan of Dr. Gibson books on emotionally immature parents. I’ve read A LOT of psychology books and none have described my childhood situation better than hers. My parents weren’t bad people. They weren’t unfair or insensitive. They just lived unexamined lives that were deeply flawed in their logic. So, it’s been up to me to understand where the dysfunction and delusion lies within my life and then to re-raise myself, developing a realistic and sympathetic internal voice. This book is a different approach for Dr. Gibson. Instead of looking back, she looks forward. Each chapter is brief and anchored by an analogy or an insight. It’s not as intense as the other books. It didn’t rock my world. But, it helped me to take more baby steps in the right direction.

Great yo go along with the book and workbook.

This is a book not just for adult children of emotionally immature parents. It is a book for everyone! It was invaluable in helping me better understand myself and my relationships with others. I really liked the format of the book. It is divided into many interesting categories for easy referencing and reading. Dr. Gibson is an amazing writer. She certainly has deep insights and a very clear understanding of the human condition. I applaud her! All of my friends have been recipients of this wonderful book. I highly recommend it!!

valuable information

After a lifetime of dealing with an Immature parent, this book has helped me love and understand my deepest feelings of self love. Getting reacquainted with my true self again with out shame or the need of approval

Es increíble, desde la segunda página se comienza a revelar lo que necesitas para tener entendimiento y paz.

Prepare o lenço.

I've read a bunch of Lindsay's books and they are all very helpful. This one is really great as it's split into bitesize sections to help with various things that affect adult children of emotionally immature parents.One of the reasons I really enjoyed this book as I don't have many friends who had similar upbringings and it's soothing to know someone understands what I went through and can offer advice to help me.

Lo compré para un regalo y vino en condiciones perfectas. Muy contenta.
