But I Love Him

Protecting Your Teen Daughter from Controlling, Abusive Relationships

Many young women — and their parents — aren't even aware of the indications of a potentially abusive relationship. What's most alarming is that these warning signs are also some of the behavior that girls find most flattering. These behaviors can escalate into blaming, isolating, manipulating, threatening, humiliation, and sexual and physical abuse.

In But I Love Him, Dr. Jill Murray identifies these controlling, abusive patterns of behavior and helps you get your daughter out of the relationship without alienating her. You will learn what draws her to this type of relationship, why she has a hard time talking to you about it, the special barriers teens face when breaking off a relationship, and what's going on in the mind of a teen abuser. Dr. Murray will help you show your teen what a respectful relationship looks like, and teach her the importance of respecting herself.

Description

Amazon.com Review

With so much focus on physical concerns these days, it's not often that such emotional issues are confronted early enough to prevent them from becoming physical as well. Murray's constant theme is "love is a behavior", and in her book she shows not only what some destructive patterns are, but how even young teens can break free.... Happily, much time is devoted to healing, and many clear-cut methods are laid out — this is not a problem likely to "just go away," and Murray emphasizes that this is the time when girls need their parents most deeply. Every parent in this situation is bound to ask why it is happening, and chapters concerning early patterns and family stress are dealt with in a fairly delicate manner — you won't find blame here, just a request to examine your own relationships honestly." -- Jill Lightner
