Not practical for abuse survivors. Grace The information was good in regards to dealing with normal, flawed, not intentionally malicious people. However, if you have ever gone through any sort of traumatic psychological abuse, be warned. This book helps you identify unsafe behavior in others but at the end it tells you to be "long suffering" and always work on difficult relationships. This is just simply impractical for anyone who has been tortured by cruel people. God doesn't want to punish you. Take care of yourself.. "Highly Recommend!" according to Ms. D in TN. I ordered this book and also ordered Boundaries by the same author. I read this book first and it's exactly what I needed. I'm in my 60's and my family relationship have been, and are, very dysfunctional. Reading this book has helped me immensely, it gave me many answers I had as to why people behave the way they do, and why I struggle with that behavior. It's easy to read, lots of examples but not too much info that you get bogged down in.. Doodle dee dee said Helpful and Informative. Safe People, Boundaries and Boundaries in Dating should be required reading for every human person. What a lot of heartache and trouble could be avoided if we studied and applied the information in these books. They are dense with info and even though I have read them a couple of times, there is still much to absorb. This is like a reference book that you will need to go back to and continue to study.
