Cynthia L. (Honeygirl62) - , reviewed on 3/4/2010 + 165 more book reviews

I thought this book started out very slow, spending way too long explaining what a boundary is or what a lack of boundaries is. Also, this book is written from a Christian point of view with many bible verses interspersed, which I felt got in the way. However, the book got much better after the beginning. I enjoyed the parts about child psychology such as how a little baby doesn't realize it is seperate from its mother. As the baby grows and starts to realize this, it starts to define itself as seperate from mommy (hence the "no" phase, which is the only way baby can be its own individual). The different chapters on boundaries with parents, children, friends, work, etc. were very good.
