Toxic Parents: Overcoming Their Hurtful Legacy and Reclaiming Your Life

Are you the child of toxic parents?

When you were a child…

• Did your parents tell you you were bad or worthless?
• Did your parents use physical pain to discipline you?
• Did you have to take care of your parents because of their problems?
• Were you often frightened of your parents?
• Did your parents do anything to you that had to be kept secret?

Now that you’re an adult…

• Do your parents still treat you as if you were a child?
• Do you have intense emotional or physical reactions after spending time with your parents?
• Do your parents control you with threats or guilt? Do they manipulate you with money?
• Do you feel that no matter what you do, it’s never good enough for your parents?

In this remarkable self-help guide, Dr. Susan Forward draws on case histories and the real-life voices of adult children of toxic parents to help you free yourself from the frustrating patterns of your relationship with your parents — and discover a new world of self-confidence, inner strength, and emotional independence.

MI Denies Anti-Bullying Law

Michigan Senate passes ‘license to bully’ legislation

Advocates for a law to prohibit bullying and provide school districts with the tools to address the problem were dealt a stinging rebuke Wednesday morning in the Republican-controlled Michigan Senate. The GOP pushed through an amended bill, SB 137, which does nothing advocates have pushed for — including reporting requirements and enumeration, or listing, of protected classes. In addition, the legislation provides an exception which allows bullying based on “moral convictions.”

Tri-Cities Abuse Cases Rising

Posted by Sandra On November - 2 - 2011 ADD COMMENTS

GREENEVILLE, TN–Courts across the Tri-Cities region are hearing more cases involving alleged child abuse and neglect.  That increase is causing more judges to request the help of court appointed special advocates and those volunteers are spread thin. In 2008, cCasa of Northeast Tennessee helped 242 families.  That increased to 306 in 2010, and because of a recent expansion into circuit courts, Casa expects to be a voice for nearly 400 children this year.

Man Convicted In 23-MO Baby’s Death Walks Free for “Time Served”

Posted by Sandra On November - 2 - 2011 ADD COMMENTS

Micheal Wills, the Lincoln man convicted of negligent child abuse in connection with the death of a 23-month-old, has been sentenced to one year in jail. A Lancaster County jury last month acquitted Wills of child abuse resulting in Carter Vetter’s death, opting instead for the misdemeanor. A year was the most Wills could get on the charge, and he’s already served more than that term while awaiting his trial.
