With warmth and with, and an understanding grounded in decades of child psychiatry and family therapy, Dr. Arthur Kornhaber, a leading clinical authority in the field of grandparenting, has written one of the most meaningful books available to families today.  Dr. Kornhaber described the complex roles of parents, grandparents, and children, and their interrelationships.  The book confronts such common difficulties and problems as: family feuds, difficult in-laws, long-distance grandparenting, parents who stay children and grandparents who stay parents, and much, much more.

 

Positive in tone and filled with fascinating true stories and useful advice, this book is essential for all who care about the betterment of their families and the happiness of their children and grandchildrenr.


Praise given in advance for the book was offered by Dr. Karl Menninger: “Between Parents and Grandparents will do a lot of good.”  Dr. Kenneth Woodward, Senior Writer of Newsweek, comments, “Dr. Kornhaber is a true physician, one who understands that authentic healing, under any circumstances, takes place between and among human beings.  He gets down to cases, instructing us all in how healing can and must – take place between the generations.  I know of no better guide of more urgent message.  Heed him!”
