Meine schwierige Mutter

Even as a child of a difficult mother, it is possible to lead a good life in adulthood and to shed the burdens of one's upbringing. The authors present concrete paths to achieve this through creative exercises, self-tests, and opportunities for self-reflection. Often, chronic emotional or physical suffering persists into adulthood when the start of life was rocky. A mother who rejects her child or views them as her lifelong possession, who is mentally ill, addicted, or otherwise impaired, becomes a heavy burden for her children if they fail to distance themselves and ultimately free themselves. The book raises awareness of this life theme by showing through numerous examples how family dynamics and relationship patterns can remain influential for a long time. The parent check and self-test provide a glimpse behind the scenes.
