With Mothers Who Can't Love: A Healing Guide for Daughters, Susan Forward, Ph.D., author of the smash #1 bestseller Toxic Parents, offers a powerful look at the devastating impact unloving mothers have on their daughters—and provides clear, effective techniques for overcoming that painful legacy. In more than 35 years as a therapist, Forward has worked with large numbers of women struggling to escape the emotional damage inflicted by the women who raised them. Subjected to years of criticism, competition, role-reversal, smothering control, emotional neglect and abuse, these women are plagued by anxiety and depression, relationship problems, lack of confidence and difficulties with trust. They doubt their worth, and even their ability to love. Forward examines the Narcissistic Mother, the Competitive Mother, the Overly Enmeshed mother, the Control Freak, Mothers who need Mothering, and mothers who abuse or fail to protect their daughters from abuse. Filled with compelling case histories, Mothers Who Can’t Love outlines the self-help techniques Forward has developed to transform the lives of her clients, showing women how to overcome the pain of childhood and how to act in their own best interests. Warm and compassionate, Mothers Who Can’t Love offers daughters the emotional support and tools they need to heal themselves and rebuild their confidence and self-respect.

Betrayal of Innocence
Incest and Its Devastation
Incest was once called the ultimate taboo. Today we realize that it is a reality with which millions cope on a daily basis. In this insightful and sensitive book, Dr. Susan Forward, bestselling author of Men Who Hate Women and the Women Who Love Them and renowned expert on sexual abuse and addictive relationships, uses twenty-five case histories-including father and daughter, mother and son, siblings, grandfather and granddaughter, mother and daughter, and father and son-to explore the traumatic effects of incest and to analyze its causes and consequences on every member of a family. In Betrayal of Innocence, Forward shows that the public's new awareness of the problem and increased availability of treatment can be of enormous benefit to victims and their families. By breaking the silence that has always surrounded this devastating subject, Betrayal of Innocence offers practical help and comfort to the survivors of child abuse and to those who love, live, or work with them.
Dlaczego niektórzy ludzie potrafią przytłoczyć nas emocjonalnie, sprawiając, że czujemy się jak ofiary? Dlaczego nie potrafimy się przed tym obronić? Dlaczego nigdy nie przedstawiamy swojego punktu widzenia? Dlaczego czujemy się zdezorientowani i bezsilni? Dlatego że stoi za tym sprytny szantaż emocjonalny, któremu ulegamy częściej, niż nam się wydaje. Autorki książki, Susan Forward i Donna Frazier, przedstawiają typowe zachowania szantażystów emocjonalnych, a także stosowane przez nich metody wywierania wpływu i skutki ulegania tej manipulacji. Proponują skuteczne strategie obrony przed uwikłaniem w emocjonalną zależność. Taka zależność to pułapka, w którą łatwo wpaść, ale z której dużo trudniej się uwolnić. Szantażysta doskonale wie, czego chce. Zręcznie manipuluje tak, aby zawsze postawić na swoim. Akceptuje nas wyłącznie wtedy, gdy na wszystko się zgadzamy, a kiedy nie chcemy ulec – odrzuca, grozi, karze, odwołuje się do poczucia obowiązku i wzbudza poczucie winy. Człowiek ulegający szantażowi zapomina o swoich potrzebach, uczuciach i pragnieniach, czuje się przegrany i sfrustrowany. Zrobi wszystko, by zadowolić bliską mu osobę.
Uvažovali jste už někdy o tom, jestli peníze a vztah k nim neovlivňují váš život více, než je únosné? Většinou si to téměř neuvědomujeme, ale peníze mají velkou moc a někdy doslova podkopávají naši radost ze života, zejména pokud jde o vztahy k jiným lidem. Často je totiž používáme jako náhražku emocí, které si netroufáme přijmout a vyjádřit. Kniha je zajímavá pro všechny, kdo různým způsobem nezvládají svůj vztah k penězům, a nabízí množství návrhů, jak tuto situaci změnit k lepšímu a „peněžních démonů“ se zbavit. Pojednává o různých vzorcích finanční sebedeprivace – o sabotování vlastního úspěchu, o zadluženosti, o nutkavém chování (hráčství, posedlosti nakupováním), o situaci, kdy partnerka vydělává více než partner či kdy jeden partner nevědomě podporuje druhého, finančně nezodpovědného. V závěru každé kapitoly je uveden výčet technik, s jejichž použitím lze navodit obrat k lepšímu. Susan Forward je americká terapeutka a autorka několika mezinárodních bestsellerů.
