I had to jump in here. The boundaries books, are the best ever. When we used boundaries for kids, our house became a much better place. I had to get the boundaries for adults. I suggest the boundaries book for anyone who has family issues.

I only wish I had read the book, when I was 10. Life would have been so much better.

My children have much healthier relationships with their friends. And when my son brought home a psycho girlfriend, we made him read the book, and he broke up with her. He is still amazed at how she is trying to cross those boundaries, two months after they have broken up. A good object lesson, I would say.

Use boundaries all of the time with my mother in law. Father in law has Alz. Mother in law knows no boundaries and never has! Some days I dont' know which is worse.
