Boundaries: When to Say Yes, How to Say No to Take Control of Your Life by Henry Cloud, John Townsend

I came across this book because I asked ChatGPT to recommend some books about boundaries. ChatGPT neglected to mention that this is written by a Christian, for Christians. The non-Christian reader's ability to gain something helpful from this book really depends on how much one minds Christian references (which is a lot). Despite that, I did find this book very useful. Somehow the things that it was speaking about were exactly what I had been pondering over.

All in all, it's a very practical book about boundaries, very easy to understand, lots of examples and explanations about the different types of boundaries, the various nuances, etc. Especially helpful for those who are conditioned to think giving mindlessly = caring, and not giving = heartless. It's a bit like a Boundary 101 explainer and guidebook.
