Review by Booklist Review

Parents who accept themselves and their children as unique individuals and understand how their upbringing influences their parenting are poised to achieve successful family relationships. To reach the elusive, evolving goal of purposeful consciousness, parents must educate themselves about child development, accept their children as separate beings, understand their parenting styles, identify childhood wounds, and learn, among other practical if somewhat challenging strategies, how to communicate intentionally. So say Hendrix and Hunt as they bring their understandings gleaned from scholarship and practice in family psychology to this meditative, provocative, yet simple and direct guidebook. Any parent possessing even a faint yearning for a better family life and a willingness to respond to therapeutic advice may find this a remarkable tool for improving parent-child relationships. --Kathryn Carpenter
