    This book is easy to read and understand. It makes the subject of Codependency understandable. I especially like that the author explains each concept and then follows up with examples. I would recommend this book for almost everyone and especially for parents of young children.

  • Not embraced properly early in life? Here's your way out

    Incredible enlightening book that touches on so many things in a small easy read that it is unimaginable. If you're the child of an alcoholic or have been neglected and not sufficiently embraced in your early life this is a must-read

  • Facing Codependence

    Helpful for understanding relationships and how people in your life shape your experience of emotions and your expression. Examples of nurturing family relationships are given as well as examples of toxic relationships. The cover picture is interesting, it is a corner room with two windows but there is only a shadow facing one direction, symbolizing point of view can be influenced.
