Opis

"Goot for You " is a true story of survival. Julie told Kerry not to marry David because, a few years earlier, she herself had married an older rich man with three children. Blinded by love, Kerry didn't listen and followed her friend into the abyss. Not having the power to stop the enabling, dysfunction, and bad parenting, Kerry and Julie helped each other to cope. Their survival tools included appletinis, therapy, humor, wine, prescription drugs, shopping and the competition for "the crown," awarded to the one with the most screwed-up stepkid at any given time. Jail, detox, re-tox, weapons and welfare. There's a lot of mileage on that crown. This book serves as an excellent warning to anyone considering marrying a person with "baggage." When it gets too heavy, drop it and run. If you are a single, career woman who has spent most of your adult life in control of your own life and are about to marry someone with children, no matter how cute, smart, absent, or well-adjusted they seem to be, "Goot for You " will help you see behind the curtain. If you're sure that your intended spouse is a viable candidate for Parent of the Year because all you've observed while dating has been a modern version of the Waltons and the Brady Bunch combined, consider "Goot for You " to be your very own reality series. If you want to avoid years of grief, guilt, drama, depression and escape-planning, due to the actions and reactions of your spouse's first family. "Goot for You " will save your sanity by showing you that you are not alone. If you want to live your whole life without seeing the inside of a jail, courtroom, rehab center or morgue, you must get to the point where your psychiatrist says, "Goot for You " It's just that simple. If you or someone you know fits the above descriptions, please give them this book. And even if they forge ahead and marry into the madness created by too much money and the enabling parents of dysfunctional children, you've done your part. You've thrown them a lifeline.
