    Loved the price and convenience of being sent to my house

This is an older title and I liked that I was able to pay a 'thrift store' price for the book without leaving home and hoping to find it somewhere. It was delivered within the timeframe noted at ordering. It was in VERY good condition. I live in small town, so this was the overall very best way to get this book.

*by C***. on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 30, 2016*

I really liked this book, I only read it because I was curious.  As many people here, I too have had a bad childhood.  Abandoned in a catholic orphanage at age 3 until 11....then in an abusive foster family.  As a child I really never knew what it would be like to be loved and belong to a family.  But I am now 62 and have my own family.  It is amazing how wonderful my children have turned out. I have had a counselor tell me that lit is not possible to have a wonderful family after a childhood like mine.  But I will say "Through Him anything is possible" I have been married for 40 years.  I have to say I put many of these principles from this book to work.  I never had a victim mentality.  I decided at 18 after I left the foster family, that I would not look back and I am now in charge of my own life.  But I was angry with God for allowing me to go through that type of childhood.  Now looking back I can see how He was there for me.  I will not get into detail. But the book has many good ideas that I can honestly look back and say I did that and things worked out for me.  If you had a bad childhood I would highly recommend it.

    Overwhelming at times, and extremely helpful!
  

*by A***X on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 6, 2008*

The tone of this book starts out a bit differently than some of Dr. Laura's other books, and I was afraid it wouldn't be as good, helpful, or focused (i.e., less helpful). Those fears were proven unfounded!There were so many letters and calls referenced in the book that reminded me of my upbringing, and as the pace and flow of the book picked up, I couldn't put it down--until I came to the part about a woman who had been told by her mother that she wished she'd aborted her: My mother once told me the same thing (as well as the fact that she wished I'd never been born, was useless, lazy, dumb, etc., ad nauseum), but the only reason she hadn't was because it was illegal at the time and she feared for HER safety (no such concern for the safety of the little tiny person inside her). It is no exaggeration to say Dr. Laura really helped me realize that no matter how much parental love is needed, not everyone parents their children. Some people are little more than sperm- and egg-donors; some parents are just selfish, mean, evil jerks, and will always be so, and there is strength to be found in facing the fact that they will never apologize or even acknowledge any hurt or wrongdoing on their part. Further, that it is generally healthier NOT to forgive them, because that is merely the final insult to a child (of any age) who has been hurt and damaged by a parent--that the abuser is absolved of all responsibility and treated as if it never happened.If you even THINK you might turn into your abusive, selfish, evil, jerky parents, please buy this book for your children's sake, and break the cycle of pain.
