¿Alguién me puede decir cuál era "la mala" de las hermanas Brontë? Porque, con esta novela, Charlotte desde luego que no.
I liked it! The characters were wonderful, the story was wonderful, and when I wasn't overanalyzing it in English class, I really enjoyed it.
Laurel Mellin is brilliant about people and about developmental psychology. She’s a R.D. who did her initial research at U.C.S.F. Here, she describes perfectly and with perspicacity, what happens when people don’t get/learn what they need (nurturing and limits skills) during early childhood, how that can lead to various problem behaviors (from overeating, overspending, overworking, not being able to say no, etc. etc. – just about under- or over- anything), and how adults, through tremendous hard work and practice, can learn & incorporate these skills for themselves. Very hopeful about how even if we didn't get the parenting we needed when younger, it’s possible to parent ourselves. Also, extremely helpful for would be parents, giving them information about how they need to behave to raise children who naturally develop nurturing and limits skills. Despite what this might sound like, this theory and program are not at all “New Age” and, refreshingly, it’s not a 12 step program, but a unique technique.
This book was not as good as some of Mr. Cook's others that I have read. It sort of dragged in the middle.
