Each of us belongs to a family and that belonging has different stages - we live with our parents, we move out on our own, we may form a partnership with another and we may start a new family where we become parents ourselves. The family has the potential for being the most fertile ground for self-development and self-fulfilment. This book provides insights and practical guidelines to enable people to get the most out of family relationships while at the same time finding one's separateness, individuality and independence.
