5.0 out of 5 stars 1st book that focuses on the 12 Steps for Adult Children, March 30, 1999
By A Customer
The 12 Steps for Adult Children is a unique tool for the millions of adults who suffer the effects of having grown up in a dysfunctional environment.

Children raised in addictive & other dysfunctional families rarely develop a sense of personal security or genuine feelings of self-worth. Seldom feeling safe & loved as children, they are handicapped in their ability to feel whole or to give & receive love as adults.

Based upon the 12 Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous, this book offers a specific format for moving from isolation & denial to acceptance & competence in dealing with feelings of anger, guilt, fear & despair. By releasing the past & opening up to the present, individuals begin to develop confidence in the realization that they are valuable & worthwhile persons.

2.0 out of 5 stars 12 Steps, but not specifically for Adult Children, February 27, 2006
By Bridget R. Stuntz "big sister" (Kent, Ohio United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I have been in Recovery for amost two years now and I am definately an ACOA. I attend a fellowship regularly and work with a sponsor, and I am also in therapy. I have issues that stem from my childhood that include my own addictions. I have recently bought a 12 step guide for most of my major issues. I now have the AA Big Book, the 12 & 12, the NA Basic Text, the It Works How & Why, The Co-Dependents Guide to the 12 steps, The OA 12 step guide, Hope & Recovery 12 steps for Compulsive Sexual Behavior. For me, I cannot read just one text. I have alot of issues and I need to see these issues translated to my particular problem. That way, whatever problem I may have in any given day, I can "look it up" with this little 12 step reference library I have and then reflect on it.
To me, this book is very generic, and it's not even the the best book out there. It should have just been named "a generic guide to the 12 steps." I have been searching for a 12 step guide specifically ACOA's but I don't think there has been one written. Today I am going to purchase "How Al-Anon Works" and see if it comes close to what I am looking for.
My advice to you, find yourself a 12 step fellowship, go to meetings, get a sponsor, work the steps. I studied self-help books alone for many years and was never able to find relief. It wasn't until I reached out to others that I started to see a real change in me, in my life, and in how I feel about myself. Don't go it alone!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars A very helpful guide, January 8, 2001
By A Customer
I have found this book to be a very helpful guide to working the 12 steps. It gives exact information and formats to go about the difficult but important work of following the 12 steps. For those of us who want to do the work but are not sure how, this is the workbook to use.
