I think a lot of people would benefit from reading this, even if they themselves are not the children of emotionally immature parents. it isn't an easy read for sure, it made me cry many times and brought up some painful memories. equally, it felt freeing to be so validated, to be finally able to describe my experiences and to get some tangible coping mechanisms for the future.

Really helpful for people looking to understand their emotionally immature and/or malignant narcissist parents or guardians. Doesn’t hold enough nuance for people of the global majority. Most of the emphasis on the book is how to maintain a relationship with these parents, and didn’t spend enough time on adult children who have already done these steps and are needing to move to low/no contact. Attachment theory would be a helpful addition

Good information for adults struggling with boundaries with their parents, but I  read it for the final chapter on how to identify emotionally mature people while dating. That chapter was mainly common sense (they ask questions about you, they don’t have a temper, they are steady and consistent emotionally, etc.).
