In Gibson's book, all unhappy families share the same flaw: the emotionally immature parent. They shy away or sprint from their feelings, making it difficult to be vulnerable or introspective about behaviors.
Gibson proposes that such parental interactions can impact emotional processing and intimate relationships for an adult child, potentially hindering emotional growth.
The phrase emotionally immature parent has gained traction beyond the book, with social media posts offering advice, identifying signs, and outlining consequences.
The book has attracted a younger audience, resonating widely and sparking discussions on emotional maturity and its impact on familial relationships.
