Based on the self-help classic, Stop Walking on Eggshells, this essential guide offers powerful skills and strategies for parenting a child of any age with borderline personality disorder (BPD)-without sacrificing their family or themselves. If you have a child with BPD, you are all-too-aware of the behavioral and emotional issues that are linked to this disorder-including rages, self-harm, sexual acting out, substance abuse, suicidal behaviors, physical and emotional attacks, and more. Traditional parenting strategies that work on other kids just don't work with a borderline child. But you shouldn't lose hope. The good news is that there are parenting strategies that do work. With this comprehensive resource, you will learn all about borderline personality disorder, how it shows up in children, adolescents, and your adult children, how to obtain proper treatment, and how to manage your child's condition at home. You'll find proven-effective strategies to help you communicate and improve your relationship with your child of any age, and, as a result, improve your own life as a parent and an individual. You'll also find real stories and advice from parents who have also experienced raising a child with BPD. Most importantly, you'll learn how to maintain boundaries and validate your child while also meeting your own needs. Whether your child is 5 or 25, this book offers tools to help you and your family thrive.

OMG, where was this book when my daughter was a kid?
Reading this book was like being resuscitated from a deep dark place. I believe both my mother and my daughter suffer(ed) from borderline personality disorder. My mother, whom has passed away, could be so vicious at times and yet quite loving and caring at others,. I grew up totally confused. After any decades in therapy I came to realize just how codependent I was. But that didn’t save me from what was to come, my daughter, a later in life, much loved only child, and as equally vicious as my mother. I didn’t understand why she was so mean, until I read this book. I wish I had had it when she was young. I didn’t know how to set limits, I always blamed myself and I have suffered the consequences ever since. I highly recommend this book to any parent wondering “Whare did I go wrong?”

A good read, helpful
A very helpful book for parents.. This doesn’t necessarily have to pertain to BPD only… it has helpful tools to be able to talk to your child whether they are very young or an adult. I wish it had some more information but what they provided. It was enough and very helpful.

So helpful!
Such a helpful book for those of us dealing with family that have this issue. There is not much factual or helpful information out there, but this book details everything in easy to understand terminology.
