A review by kloughlin
Self-Care for Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents: Honor Your Emotions, Nurture Your Self, and Live with Confidence by Lindsay C. Gibson

informative slow-paced

2.0

I expected this to be a book about self-care techniques specifically tailored to the traumas of adult children of emotionally immature parents. Ninety percent of the book was generic self-care advice with about ten percent being related to adult children of emotionally immature parents (some of which was described in previous books by the same author). 

A small issue I had was the author makes a bold claim in this book that people with attention disorders are more evolved than those without attention disorders. I thought it was inappropriate and unrelated to the topic of that chapter, parenting.

The narrator was ill-suited to the subject matter; I could hear her smiling at points that didn’t warrant a positive attitude (such as describing trauma).
