What does one do when the bonds of parental affection are sundered--by one's parents? Mrs. Berger Gross gives her answer: estrangement. It is a hard-fought, hard-won decision. But a necessary one. Forgiveness, it seems, isn't so much for the offender, but rather for the offendee--so that they may be free. Free of the burdens, blame, bitterness. But the estrangement didn't begin in adulthood, but rather with the adults who overstepped, abusing their authority. Adults who didn't, and won't, own their own actions.Read this short book, and be moved. You may not be faced with this situation, but if you are: you're not alone.
