Running on Empty: Overcome Your Childhood Emotional Neglect by Jonice Webb, Christine Musello

3.0

Emotional neglect is not a peer scientific reviewed thing Webb in the context she has written about validated.  I liked how it allows one to acknowledge that parents make mistakes and it could have led to harm to the intended harm done by parents.  Thought the way of emotional neglect was a little bit broad.  When it comes to it, it comes to being with your feelings and taking them on versus ignoring them or dismissing them and letting others in.

It was an interesting concept and I hope there will be more research in Webb's way to see if there is a scientific backing to her hypothesis.
