About this book:
  • If you grew up with an emotionally immature, unavailable, or selfish parent, you may have lingering feelings of anger, loneliness, betrayal, or abandonment. You may recall your childhood as a time when your emotional needs were not met, when your feelings were dismissed, or when you took on adult levels of responsibility in an effort to compensate for your parent's behavior. These wounds can be healed, and you can move forward in your life.
  • In this breakthrough book, clinical psychologist Lindsay Gibson exposes the destructive nature of parents who are emotionally immature or unavailable. You will see how these parents create a sense of neglect, and discover ways to heal from the pain and confusion caused by your childhood. By freeing yourself from your parents' emotional immaturity, you can recover your true nature, control how you react to them, and avoid disappointment. Finally, you'll learn how to create positive, new relationships so you can build a better life.
  • Discover the four types of difficult parents:
    • The emotional parent instills feelings of instability and anxiety
    • The driven parent stays busy trying to perfect everything and everyone
    • The passive parent avoids dealing with anything upsetting
    • The rejecting parent is withdrawn, dismissive, and derogatory

This book was amazing for me in my young adulthood when I was needing to learn more about myself and my relationship with a narcissist parent. It's not for everyone but it really helped me.

It probably doesn't apply to you if you can't remember your childhood because it wasn't traumatic enough. Don't brag 💩

Avoid this and keep proper perspective.
Dr. Gibson's perspective lacks nuance as it strongly appeals to our sense of victimhood and inclination to self-rightousness. Don't get me wrong, healthy boundaries are important but this book weaponizes psychobabble to justify a different type of poor behavior. If you swallow everything in this book you too can turn into a self-righteous jerk that looks down on everyone else. A good book will help you be more self-aware and informed then lead you to make decisions to be "different from how you were" while appreciating the good around you. A destructive book will lead you to feel like a moral superior, scoffing at the fools around you because you are making decisions to be "better than those around you" and resentful of all the ways they ruined your life.

...this validates all of the bad stereotypes about how destructive poor therapists are.

I'll 'brag' the other way. When I got to basic military training in the late 80s, and being told I was worthless, being told I was never doing anything right, and being constantly yelled at; this, I was already trained for. The drill instructors were just background noise to me.

I developed epilepsy in my late 20s, I remember so little of my childhood. Unfortunately, all I do reliably remember are the traumatic moments 🥲

Take lots of videos of them having fun so that you can show them when they come to you later in life saying you ruined their childhood!
