Separation and divorce are tough enough on grown-ups, and they can be even tougher on kids. Parents may expect their children to be their allies, messengers, or spies. That's a lot of pressure for a kid! And it doesn't have to be this way. In <i>Caught in the Middle: A Letter to My Parents</i>, Dr. Benjamin Garber shares Emma's story of how parental conflict feels to a child. You'll learn practical strategies for cooperating, communicating, and putting your kids' needs first, so they can have the childhood they deserve. </p> <p>Emma, a fictitious 18-year-old high school graduate who grew up in the middle of her parents' selfish divorce and co-parenting war. Emma is an amalgam of the thousands of children that have found themselves caught in the middle of their parents' conflicts. The rage and narcissistic injuries that these parents live with day-to-day blinds them to their children's needs. As a result, children like Emma are prematurely thrust into the adult world. They are forced to become their parents' allies and confederates, messengers and spies. They give up their childhoods in order to serve their parents' selfish needs. They become chameleons, changing who they are in order to fit into the adult world, or ostriches, burying their heads in the sands of denial.</p> <p>Emma's done a very selfless thing by sharing this journal with you. The thoughts and feelings that she shares here are very private. Even embarrassing. But Emma and I have decided to put this book in your hands in the singular hope that maybe you will make different choices than her parents did. Maybe by sharing her journal, Emma can help you learn to raise healthier children.</p> <p><i>Caught in the Middle</i> is Book 2 in the <i>Healthy Parenting</i> series.
