And if you're not a parent, don't dismiss it. The message is one of non-judgmental kindness."―<i>Vogue </i>(London)</b> <p/> <b>How can we have better relationships?</b> <p/> In this instant <i>Sunday Times</i> bestseller, leading psychotherapist Philippa Perry reveals the vital do's and don'ts of relationships. This is a book for us all. Whether you are interested in understanding how your upbringing has shaped you, looking to handle your child's feelings or wishing to support your partner, you will find indispensable information and realistic tips in these pages. Philippa Perry's sane, sage and judgement-free advice is an essential resource on how to have the best possible relationships with the people who matter to you most.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b>Praise for </b><i><b>The Book You Wish Your Parents Had Read: </b></i> <p/>"[H]onest, warm, and judgment-free. . . this is essential for all parents, from those first expecting to empty nesters. It's never too early or too late to improve the relationship with your children, and, as the title suggests, they'll be glad you did."<br><b><i>--Booklist </i>(starred review)</b> <p/>"Healing from, and learning not to perpetuate, difficult upbringings is the linchpin of this practical, self-care-centered parenting guide . . . Perry's kind but professional tone results in a helpful manual that will appeal to new parents who want an expert on board as they take the time to be reflective in their parenting."<br><b><i>--Publishers Weekly <p/></i></b>"Accessible, compassionate."<br><b>--<i>Bookpage</i></b> <p/>It is hard to read fast, not just because Perry's text is punctuated by exercises...but because it prompts so many realisations, or insights, or clearly names things that have until now existed just beyond one's awareness. And it provides tools, straightforward and manageable if not always easy, that can be implemented at once. I am grateful for it.<br><b><i>--The Guardian</i> (UK)</b><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Philippa Perry</b> has been a psychotherapist for the past twenty years.
