Rating:  Summary: I encourage all mothers and daughters to read this book so t Review: In treating and interviewing at great length over 200women I have learned and taught much new information. The most important finding is that we all want approval from our mothers and daughters .Daughters call it Acceptance and mothers call it getting Respect.The total embodiment of these goals lie in good, basic straightforward communication. The guidelines are in my book and the motivations are in your heart.Getting the love you want so much means giving that love. The process is always reciprocal and egalitarian. We are each other's care-takers. There is no stronger bond between people nor one so filled with emotions than the mother-daughter tie. . Keep it going, and NEVER GIVE UP HOPE. Dr. Charney Herst , Encino, California,Author,psychotherapist,mom.
Rating:  Summary: Unbelivable Review: Is Unbelievable How some one can be conciderd an Expert, when Her own family life has been in shambles, I guess practice what you preach is not something they teach you in school. The book is based on clinical mumbo-jumbo. and has no basis in reality. Just my own opinion
Rating:  Summary: For Mothers of Difficult Daughters: How to Enrich and Repair Review: These authors are way off base. Daughters who are 'difficult' are so because they did not get what they needed from their mothers in the first place. The women who like this book are mothers who failed at parenting and now want to blame it on someone else, and guess who is handy.Mothers with 'difficult' daughters are themselves difficult people. They need to look inside first in order to find the source of their daughter's pain. Instead of blaming their daughters for being 'difficult' (which is like blaming the unhealthy fruit from a neglected orchard), these mothers might better show some responsibility and read 'Making Peace with Your Adult Children: a Guide to Family Healing'.
