Product Description

All parents fall short from time to time. But Susan Forward pulls no punches when it comes to those whose deficiencies cripple their children emotionally. Her brisk, unreserved guide to overcoming the stultifying agony of parental manipulation--from power trips to guilt trips and all other killers of self worth--will help deal with the pain of childhood and move beyond the frustrating relationship patterns learned at home.

If you are searching for this book you must be dealing with some pretty heavy stuff. This is by far the best self help book I have ever read dealing with issues stemming from toxic childhoods.

If you have been verbally abused, physically abused, sexually abused, were neglected, or forced to take on the role of the parent when you were just a child this is a great book to read. It will help you connect what happened in your childhood to what is going on with you now. And how to overcome your current problems.

The only thing that could make this book better is if it actually included sessions with Susan Forward.

This book proved to be such a help in working to overcome my abusive childhood and dealing with my adult relationship with my abusive parents. I wish the author would be available in my area for therapy! It is written in a very readable style; not at all like a textbook. I have recommended this book to so many people. I wish I could rate it higher, I think this should be one of the recommended books to all people dealing with abusive "Toxic" parents.

I first read this book several years ago, when I finally got the courage to enter therapy and start exploring some things about myself. When I started reading it I saw so many of my family patterns that had been harmful. Life is much simpler once you read something like this book that validates your painful experiences, and you can then go on (after therapy and lots of self-improvement) to do much better with your own children. "What you don't hand back, you pass on."

I think this book has useful information for anyone who has parents.

I haven't read the whole thing but what I have has made me cry - I was able to relate to quite a few things....it was a relief to know that my patterns and behavior have reasons (not excuses, but reasons.)

Glad I bought it.
