In the continuation of the important work Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents, author Lindsay Gibson offers powerful tools to distance and protect yourself at the slightest hint of emotional takeover. Growing up with emotionally immature parents can leave you feeling lonely and neglected. You may struggle to set boundaries and express your feelings, and you may be more prone to other emotionally immature people in your adult relationships.

As your parents grow older, they may continue to treat your feelings with mockery and contempt, be distant, and invalidate your reality while trying to control and diminish your sense of emotional autonomy and free thinking. Emotionally Immature Parents (EIPs) are often egocentric, inconsistent, and contradictory.

This guide, based on her popular self-help edition, will help you recognize the signs of an EIP, protect yourself from an emotional takeover, reconnect with your own emotions and needs, and gain emotional autonomy in all your relationships. It includes exercises and practical advice on what to say and do to enhance your emotional autonomy and self-awareness.

If you are ready to stop putting your needs last and clear up uncertainty, this book will help you find the freedom to live your life the way you want.
