Book Reviews of Coping With Your Difficult Older Parent : A Guide for Stressed-Out Children

Book Review: Should be a big help to "stressed out" children.
Summary: 4 Stars

The authors have generously revealed their techniques for coping with common (or uncommon)familial crises. They lean heavily on psychological methods--searching for causes in order to find solutions. The examples of "grownchildren"'s problems make fascinating reading. While addressed primarily to children, parents may find it worthwhile to read as a test for their own behavior.
