Growing Up in Alcoholism, Violence & Dysfunction

This Book is a 2nd edition, re-titled, with a new rear cover, preface, sub title, updated author photo, & other changes. Rarely is the story of adult children told from the child's point of view. The inner child suffers the most consequences. This story provides empathy for childhood suffering. Until the child is at least minimally listened too, and understood all else is a repeat of the same dysfunctional childhood because again no one is attending to the child's need to be heard. This book makes the reader laugh and cry by allowing the reader to feel the feelings denied in childhood. As a child attempts to earn the approval of parents rarely emotionally available, it gives birth to co-dependence. This is the story of a conquering child who decided to talk, trust, and feel.
