Customer Reviews

Genuinely needed in most families

My friends and I have a saying about this book- if you don't need it, you're the crazy one and you're family does! Loved the book, the anecdotes- I felt like I really knew the people she was talking about!- and the reality of it all. We're not alone in this people! All of our families are crazy... the question is, will you let them take away your sanity or will you read the book?

A must have for every family

This book is a must have for every family out there, disfunctional or not. I bought this book back in 1995 and I have read and reread it several times over the years. It explains the problems that all families experience. You will be so suprised to find that "your" family isn't all that crazy, and most importantly, you'll get great insight on how to keep your family from driving you crazy. I plan to purchase multiple copies this year and give them as gifts. I highly recommend this book to everyone I meet, I just won't let them borrow my copy!
