Title: One Sided
Product review: Thank you to Barbara LeBey for adding even more stress and resentment into some already rocky relationships between mother and daughter-in-laws. What I explored in this book was a bunch of one-sided mother of son sob stories that blamed the daughter-in-laws for family breakdowns. Unfortunately, there wasn't much exploration as to why these estragements were SONS and their mothers. Also unfortunate is that my mother-in-law read this book and now has ME to blame for the years of dysfunction and denial that have plagued her family. She now has a convenient excuse to ignore the alcoholism, manipulation, conditional love and lack of communication that she raised her son in. Honestly, if we, daughter-in-laws, were such "evil puppet masters" with enough control over our husbands to make them abandon their families, don't you think we would work on the dirty socks on the floor first?!!! Why not try a James Dobson book instead?
