About this listen

Adult children whose parents are invalidating, critical, demanding, or hateful require skills to advocate for their own needs. In this much-needed guide, listeners will learn how to employ unique assertiveness strategies based on the characteristics of their own family dynamics; uncover the hidden motives behind their parents’ behavior; put a stop to repetitive, hurtful interactions without cutting off their problem parents; and foster healthier relationships.
