saw Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 I seem to remember that someone here has posted a recommendation or two for a book on boundaries, specifically, setting boundaries with family members who are overstepping. Any ideas? It was a while back I think. Many thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mama Geek Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 I wonder if it was this one? http://www.amazon.com/Boundaries-When-Take-Control-Your/dp/0310247454/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1409558465&sr=8-1&keywords=boundaries I don't know, though This is the one often talked about here. It is a pretty good book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saw Posted September 1, 2014 Author Share Posted September 1, 2014 Thanks very much. This looks like it could be the one. I see from the description that it is Christian-based. Is it any particular "flavor" of Christianity? I'm Christian but would be uncomfortable with a book that based its recommendations entirely on scripture, for example.

sunflowerlady Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 It is written by Christians,but it does not come across as particularly conservative. There are bible verses used but they do not dominate the text. Basically they are used to support the ideas and information in the book. The advice in the book would be helpful to anyone,not just Christians. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some books on these types of issues emphasize "turning the other check" far, far more than I feel is appropriate. This one is very much about healthy relationships within a Christian setting.
