a very validating and helpful book for beginning the process of healing and letting go of trying to change people (especially parents) who don’t have the capacity to meet your emotional needs. I’d maybe actually give this more like 4.5 stars just because I would like to see some more practical steps for healing and especially for identifying unhealthy patterns in yourself and working to develop your own emotional maturity.. but overall this was a helpful and informative read.

Love it, so helpful. Most in this category deal with romantic relationships or parent/child where the child is a minor. It’s very helpful to have a resource as an adult, and gives great insights into parents

This book is helpful for those who may have grown up
With emotionally immature parent(s).
It was a bit harder for me to follow along to die to the way it was written but it was still very eye opening and provided great insight on how to deal with emotionally immature parent(s).
