Description:

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents by Lindsay Gibson is a powerful exploration of the emotional toll that parents with emotional immaturity can have on their children. If you grew up with a parent who was emotionally unavailable, selfish, or immature, this book is for you. It uncovers the long-lasting effects that such parenting can have on your emotional well-being and offers paths for healing and self-discovery. In her insightful and compassionate work, Dr. Gibson exposes the destructive behaviors of emotionally immature parents, showing how they create feelings of neglect, abandonment, and confusion in their children. Many adult children of such parents struggle with unresolved emotions like anger, loneliness, and betrayal. They often grew up in environments where their feelings were ignored, dismissed, or overshadowed by their parent’s emotional volatility. As a result, they may have been forced to take on adult-like responsibilities and care for their own emotional needs from a young age. Dr. Gibson breaks down the emotional damage caused by four specific types of difficult, emotionally immature parents: the emotional parent, who creates anxiety and instability; the driven parent, who is obsessed with perfection and overachieving; the passive parent, who avoids confrontation and emotional issues; and the rejecting parent, who is distant, dismissive, and sometimes even cruel. Each of these types leaves its mark on a child, creating emotional wounds that can persist well into adulthood. Duration - 1h 2m. Author - SellWave Audio. Narrator - Digital Voice Archie G.
