A kind of self-help book that draws on real-life stories to look at the relationship between mothers and adult children. Drawing on early childhood experience, the author urges people to make some sort of peace with their mothers wherever possible.
I suppose it is my own fault for believing that a book would really give legitimate advice on how to remedy a relationship, but I read this whole diatribe in such hopes. Sadly, the book seemed to only make excuses for those "bad" mothers and put the focus on the children to either accept this, or work on making changes today. Where is the option of choosing to live without? Severely disappointing.
