Synopsis

Dubbed a "hidden pandemic" by a rising number of therapists and academics, estrangement is one of a parent's most bewildering and traumatic events. The popular opinion generally offers a one-sided tale of parents who got what they deserved or excessively entitled adult children who unjustly blame their parents. However, the causes of alienation are significantly more complicated and diverse. As an outcome of rising individualism, a growing cultural focus on happiness, increasing economic uncertainty, and the historically recent idea that parents are impediments to personal progress, many parents find themselves permanently excluded from the lives of their adult children and grandkids. Separation Precepts is a handbook for parents whose adult children have broken off communication and for adult children who are estranged from their parents. This book unveils the inner workings of estrangement, discusses its ethnic underpinnings, and gives practical counsel for parents attempting to reconcile with their adult child. If you are experiencing family estrangement or this topic interests you, look no further; you've found the right book.
