Publisher's Summary

If you have a child with borderline personality disorder (BPD), you are all-too-aware of the behavioral and emotional issues that are linked to this disorder-including rages, self-harm, sexual acting out, substance abuse, suicidal behaviors, physical and emotional attacks, and more. Traditional parenting strategies that work on other kids just don't work with a borderline child. But you shouldn't lose hope. The good news is that there are parenting strategies that do work.

With this comprehensive resource, you will learn all about borderline personality disorder, how it shows up in children, adolescents, and your adult children, how to obtain proper treatment, and how to manage your child's condition at home. You'll find proven-effective strategies to help you communicate and improve your relationship with your child of any age, and, as a result, improve your own life as a parent and an individual. You'll also find real stories and advice from parents who have also experienced raising a child with BPD.

Most importantly, you'll learn how to maintain boundaries and validate your child while also meeting your own needs. Whether your child is five or 25, this book offers tools to help you and your family thrive.

extremely biased, bad writing.

Lobel is a horrible writer that is supposed to be a professional yet makes these people out to be scapegoats. Appalling.

Phenomenal Book!

I am a special education teacher, not a parent, but I found this to be super informative and provides a lot of practical strategies. I highly recommend this book if you have someone in your life with BPD.

an absolute lifesaver!

I've been seeking therapy for almost a year. My therapist recommended this book and it has completely changed how I feel about BPD in my adult daughter. it has taught me how to respond to her correctly, and how to help her and I live in Harmony.

Great practical guide for parents!

As someone who has a child with BPD and also has a partner who has a child with BPD, I can testify that this excellent and accessible book provides many helpful tools, encouraging stories and testimonies and connections to a wide variety of other helpful sources. I highly recommend it!
