Parent Yourself Again: Love Yourself the Way You Have Always Wanted to Be Loved

Megan Daigle

This is an interesting approach to healing from those places your parents wounded, either unintentionally or intentionally. Yong Kang Chan writes in a way that is easy to read and very relatable. The premise of the book is learning to be your own parent so you may give yourself what your parents did not and heal from the areas wounded from the lack you perceived.

This book is awesome. It helped me to dig deeper into my own mental health and how to get better at supporting myself.

One thing were i cant agree with the book is propably the positivity and the feeling of completly forgiving your parents. As somebody who was abused, for me there is a line where i cant fully forgive. Perhaps thats sth to work on, on the other hand i would have liked to read more about boundaries and walking away as selfcare. Unsure if thats sth i could have gotten here, its propably nothing thats 'normal' in the Asian culture?
