À propos de cet audio

When a parent singles out a child for special privileges and attention, that child is often unaware that the relationship is unhealthy - even incestuous. As adults, these children struggle to feel validated, because while they have not been directly abused, they feel a sense of violation and crossed boundaries - usually done in the name of 'love' and 'caring'. The parent's love feels more confining than freeing, more demanding than giving, more intrusive than nurturing. Yet these children suffer from what psychologist Kenneth Adams calls The Silent Seduction - because there is nothing loving or caring about a close parent-child relationship that services the needs of the parent rather than the child.

In this revised and updated 20th anniversary edition of his groundbreaking book Silently Seduced, Dr. Adams explains how 'feeling close', especially with the opposite-sex parent, is not the source of comfort the image suggests, especially when that child is cheated out of a childhood by being a parent's surrogate partner. He offers a framework to understand this covert incest and its effect on sexuality, intimacy, and relationships, and how victims can begin the process of recovery.

This helped me finally understand why I feel trapped and guilty to thrive on my own. It's sadly so commonplace and I can think of many people who are also held back by their parents neediness, guilt trips, controlling and shaming behaviour. Everyone should listen to this if not for their own situation, than to identify those who cross your path with these issues and know it's not you...it's their parents.

Eye opening and pivotal

Ce livre change ma vie à 47 ans. J'apprends enfin ce qui m'est arrivé !
La narration est bonne mais par moment une voix féminine aurait pu être utilisée pour les passages où ce sont des femmes qui s'expriment.

This is a vital book for covert incest victims

this guy gives me the creeps.

after years of therapy?

It only takes months to convince someone that they have been "violated"
Seems like this guy is more concerned about his bank account than the people he's "counseling"

I bought this book thinking there would be something that may help in my own journey to understanding
my relationship with my mother.
(which was unusual)

I am so disappointed.
just more drivel about how he's "saved" a few people.
nothing about the hundreds that probably got fed up with his telling his victims they were violated.

so far it's a lot of smarmy narratives.
