"A book everyone should read. Cloud & Townsend, licensed (and thoroughly knowledgable) psychiatrists explain how to distinguish yourself from other people. That's the simple explanation, a better way to review this book is to say it showed me how to be a better person and a much better lover of people who no longer feels trapped or bound in unhealthy relationships. Great for Americans who stay in unhealthy "frenemy" relationships, resent their spouses but don't know how to change the situation, say "yes" when they want to say "no" because they're afraid of losing someone else's love or respect, are easily guilted into doing things they don't want to, etc."
"I'm not done reading the book yet, so I may update this later. The fact is, if I wasn't reading this book for a book group, I don't think I would go any further, or gotten as far as I have.
The thing I hate the most in this one is how much scripture is quoted. The authers feel like they have to back up every sentance they right with scripture in order to make what they just said okay. To accomplish this they often end up twisting the words of the orginal authors and take things out of context. I hate it when people do this.
The other thing is.. how they betray Christians in terms of boundries.
I will use the example of one of the portriats they present in the book. Apperiently "Debbie" was working weekends at her job and not getting paid. That wasn't her issue. Her issue was that after setting her boundry she felt angery and she was worried about the anger. Who in their right mind would do that? And who would honestly feel guilty about feeling angery about it!?! Honestly to read the book "Boundries" you would think that all Christians are total morans just standing in the middle of the othe highway of life, begging to be run over by a flet of fully loaded 18 wheelers.
I feel like screaming at these people. I guess if you have severe boundry issues and can't say no to anyone for anything, this book is for you."
"This is one of those "change your life" books. I didn't understand what boundaries were or why it's important to have them until I opened this up. I think I read it in a day. I shared it with friends, bought more of these books and shared them. Really important to know when to say things and when not to, as well as when a problem is yours and when it's not. Amazing."
"A friend told me about this book. It really helped me look at myself from the outside in and solve some problems I've been struggling with. It gave me new insight, a new and simple plan, and a "ticket" to not feel so guilty about things I never had control about in the first place. Good read."
