heavy ableism in some areas, specifically regarding neurodivergencies including autism/adhd/cluster b personality disorders. enough good bits to prevent a 1 star for the heavy ableism, but YIKES. two reviews that put it into words better than i can:

Nothing I didn't already know from therapy, but has some useful ideas around how to have compassion for troubled parents while at the same time setting boundaries and learning from their mistakes.

The writing feels repetitive and not very informative/specific.
