A Really Good Article from the Chicago Tribune

Here is a really good article on separation and cut-off in families and ways to bridge the separation. I commend the article.

One good book not mentioned on the article's 2nd page is:
“Connecting with Our Children: Guiding Principles for Parents in a Troubled World” by Roberta Gilbert, MD outlines Bowen family systems theory and illustrates its applications with an ongoing family example. Roberta Gilbert is faculty at Bowen Center for the Study of the Family and directs a training program for clergy through Center for Human Systems. The book and CD can be ordered through www.hsystems.org.
