Reviews"This is a valuable, practical resource for parents and caregivers of children, from age five through adulthood, who exhibit signs of, or have been diagnosed with, borderline personality disorder (BPD). Useful for both parents just learning about BPD and those with years of familiarity, the book goes through strategies of care for children with the disorder as well as tools for caregiver self-care, providing many useful resources along the way. One particularly unique and helpful tool placed throughout the book are charts comparing BPD with other disorders. With chapters dedicated to family dynamics and working with siblings, the book ultimately offers a roadmap for people to understand the complexities of the disorder, not just from a clinical perspective, but through personal accounts from people who have BPD. 'When we began this book, the parents we interviewed asked us to include stories of hope,' write the authors. 'We thought such tales were going to be hard to find, but we had plenty--way more than we can use.' Highly recommended for all libraries." -- Booklist, " Stop Walking on Eggshells for Parents takes on the challenging territory of helping parents who have a child living with BPD, and provides actionable suggestions in a framework that is compassionate toward everyone in the family system. Very few books take on the issue of the onset of BPD patterns in childhood and adolescence, and this awareness is essential to helping families with support instead of stigma." --Ramani Durvasula, PhD , clinical psychologist; founder and CEO of LUNA Education, Training and Consulting; and retired professor of psychology at California State University, Los Angeles, "Children don't come with instruction manuals--particularly borderline personality disorder (BPD) children. This book is a comprehensive guide to why your child is so troubled, disrespectful, and prone to rages; how you can strategize to improve these and other typical BPD behaviors (and your own health in the process!); and where to find the resources to assist you. For bewildered and beleaguered parents at their wits' end, it's the answer to a prayer!" --Fran L. Porter, BEd, MA , 2017 Calgary Philanthropic Award winner, and author of When the Ship Has No Stabilizers, " Stop Walking on Eggshells for Parents is a much-needed and welcome guide for families who have a child with borderline behaviors. Using research and interviews with real families, the authors provide comprehensive guidance, information, support, parenting suggestions, treatment options, and extensive examples to help parents respond effectively to the difficult challenges of their emotionally dysregulated children. It fills a great need for practical, understanding support." --Margalis Fjelstad, PhD , author of Healing from a Narcissistic Relationship , and coauthor of Raising Resilient Children with a Borderline or Narcissist Parent, "This book is full of useful information for parents and caretakers of children with BPD. It is a great resource for those who need help with the behavior and ever-changing emotions of their child. I highly recommend this book to parents of children at any age to help navigate the uncertain journey with BPD, and help themselves and their child." --Donna Toone , administrator of the Facebook group, Support for Parents of Children with BPD; and mom of a child with BPD
