Title: Stop the fussing and learn to be happier with your folks
Product review: The "generation gap" takes on an intensely personal meaning when you go "home" for a visit with your parents. Psychologists say something about the key to being a fully differentiated adult is being able to behave the same in or out of your parents' presence. It's harder than it sounds: many of us turn into rebellious or inadequate or withdrawn kids again. It helps a lot to aim for increased self-awareness. This clearly written book by Susan Newman offers a multitude of insights and anecdotes and much wisdom to help us get along better with those who used to get away with bossing us around. I also think reading this book would be a good way to get a handle on how our own kids will one day think about US. Eeek. Prevention is the better part of valor, or something like that.
