Fix Your Family Mike Simpson

Our families can be the source of great joy, inspiration, sustenance and good examples of mercy and strength. It's equally, painfully true that families can be our greatest source of misery, stagnation, anger and resentment. I'm guessing you know pretty well that families can be inadequate, dysfunctional fountains of pain. For you perhaps the real question is: can families be fixed? Is it possible the same family that turns every birthday, every holiday, maybe every meal into a nightmare can be transformed into a group of compassionate, accepting, sincere, nurturing loved ones? It can happen, yes. Whether or not it will happen depends on your willingness to understand why they act as they do, to engage them, to persist in being part of their lives and, above all, to let yourself be empowered by what you're about to learn and do as you move through the process described in this book to fix your family.
