Overview

Distrust, fear of abandonment, and sensitivity to criticism are just a few of the traits found in adult children of alcoholics. This book is for the spouse or significant other to the adult child, and helps partners better understand the underlying causes of adult neuroses whose seeds were planted by growing up with an alcoholic parent. Douglas and Deborah Bey help couples recognize these patterns and offer suggestions for changing them so that they may enjoy a deeper, more meaningful relationship.
