Description

Many people were forced, as children, to learn to very skillfully hide their emotions, desires, and needs in order to meet their parents' expectations and earn their "love."
As adults, they may chase success, but at the same time, they have an underlying sense that they are worth nothing. Never having been allowed to express their true feelings, and having lost touch with their true selves, they act out their repressed emotions with episodes of depression or compulsive behavior, or even with grandiose ideas. Subsequently, they, in turn, pass on this legacy of repression to their own children. This heartbreaking and insightful book is a first step towards discovering our needs and our own truth in our effort to break free from this vicious cycle.

    It writes important things that everyone should know about children's injuries and parents' behaviors towards children, but it is not easy to read and I got bored from the middle onwards.. Nevertheless, I read it to the end.

    I have never read a more pessimistic book. Being a realist in my life, I didn't understand the reason for it not finding a ray of light and being so miserable. It constantly blames the parents and accuses them, feeling anger and hatred towards them. This book caused me a lot of negative emotions.

    This book is recommended to many people by psychotherapists and others, so that readers can come into contact with more or less traumatic incidents from their childhood and become sensitized as parents themselves. Although this is in itself an important contribution, in my opinion the book has several weaknesses such as the lack of structure (it is not particularly readable), the adherence and repetition of Freudian ideas that are not supported by empirical research, the generalized pessimism and the lack of realistic proposals for children's growth by applying certain boundaries (the author seems to completely exclude the latter as traumatic, without offering any alternative in such a difficult time for families - see excessive use of technology, etc.).

    A punch in the stomach that every person should take. It helps in understanding ourselves. And in the outburst of anger, but ultimately also in forgiveness towards our parents. It protects future children. Even understanding just one page is a gain.

    A book that in my humble opinion everyone should read..!!
    There are many benefits to reading it..
    It is easy to read.
    It is worth reading it a second (and more) time as we tend to push away something we read when it reminds us of situations we didn't like...

    A very nice book that everyone of us who likes psychology topics and especially psychoanalysis should read. It is definitely a book that I recommend, just like most of Alice Miller's books!

    Very good book! You will definitely identify with a story. You will definitely gain strength from others who have experienced similar situations to yours and you are not alone. I believe everyone should read it, with or without their childhood trauma! Especially those who are preparing to become parents.
    It has some unnecessary pages with tedious details, but I do not consider it a decisive factor in the overall book.
