Dr. Kruger's book, "Making Meories" was, for me, one of the most profound books I have ever read. I found it meaningful in reflecting upon my family of origin as well as my history as a father. Dr. Kruger's book is filled with wisdom and presented in an elequent manner. It also contained considerable humor. Dr. Kruger is a good story teller. It would, in my opinion, have meaning for any of us, who has been a son, daughter, father or mother.
Highly informative, accessible, recommended reading. Rating:
5 / 5
Dr. David Krueger draws upon his experience and expertise as Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at Baylor College of Medicine, Training and Supervising Analyst at Houston-Galveston Psychoanalytic Institute, and Faculty member of The Institute of Contemporary Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis in Washington DC, to explain and documents in Making Memories how children shape their parents. It's about how fathers and mothers learn from their children, and must ultimate learn to say goodbye to their sons and daughters so when those children-as-adults live out their independent lives, the emotional bonds of parenthood and inter-generational communication remain healthy and effective. Making Memories is highly informative and recommended reading for students of family dynamics, parenting, and is accessible to the non-specialist general reader with an interest in parent-child relationships.
Making Memories Rating:
5 / 5
Warm and touching, yet chock-full of information for parents of all ages. Truly delightful!
