Lindsay C. Gibson is also confirmed in the numbers podcastssaying the following: “If these people can see their own behavior from the outside, if they have the ability to self-reflect, then emotional development is possible. But if they reject it and see everyone else as guilty, there will be no development. They don’t even have a motivation for this: “Why should I change? I know what I want. And I know how you must be. Be exactly as I want! »»

Lindsay C. Gibson «The legacy of emotionally immature parents»
A clear and scientific view of the topic from a renowned clinical psychologist, expressed with compassion and understanding. The book helps to understand emotional immaturity in any close relationship, whether with a parent or a life partner, even with friends. From afar, emotionally immature people often appear charming, intelligent, and successful. As long as everything happens “according to their plan” and no one expects them to understand their emotions or open up. They often say: I don’t have a problem, you have a problem! They cause chaos and suffering, but are blind to the pain of others. Instead, they make a big deal out of even the smallest inconvenience.
If you’ve met or grown up with an emotionally immature, unavailable, or selfish parent, you’ve likely experienced loneliness, betrayal, abandonment, and anger.
This person does not consider your emotional needs. By reading this book you will learn where the feelings of abandonment, confusion, and guilt experienced in childhood come from.
Four types of emotionally immature parents:
- An emotionally unstable parent increases insecurity and anxiety in children. He has problems with himself or there is direct violence.
- The assertive parent controls and takes care of managing the children’s lives.
- A passive parent tries to avoid anything that could cause a fight.
- The intrusive parent is reserved, always in a hurry.
Lindsay C. Gibson, Psycho. D is a clinical psychologist who specializes in psychotherapy with adult children of emotionally immature parents.

Daniele Golemann “Emotional Intelligence”
Another term, but close in content. How does a person go about understanding, reflecting on, and managing their own and others’ feelings? Will he learn to control his emotions by accepting them, or will his feelings control him?
Emotional wisdom is the primordial wisdom of humanity, and the decisions that can change a person’s life the most are made by feelings. The mind alone doesn’t decide much! The admiration of the intellect was accompanied by the awareness that apparently rational decisions are often the result of quick thinking guided by emotions, so that it is the understanding of the emotional meaning of the situation that decides the outcome. Useful reading for those who want to manage themselves and others with empathy and understanding of feelings.

Neil Strauss “The truth. An embarrassing book about relationships”
Neil Strauss is a psychologist by training, but he is also a journalist and an adventurer. The result is a book that is educational and profound, yet as easy to read as a crime novel or a romance novel. And the last two are also this book. The story is about relationship attempts, navigating multiple lovers, infidelity, therapy and orgies. Briefly some exciting “human experiments” that the author conducted on himself at the risk of his own mental health.
The theme of emotional immaturity also emerges as an interesting motif in the book: very raw, understandable and vividly painful. They have the child of an immature mother, which is why she herself is unable to mature emotionally, as she prefers to let go of her feelings rather than face them. Emotional closeness and intimacy in a relationship – this, like hundreds of men, is her greatest fear! But the situation is not desperate. This book can be a golden key that can open the eyes of even an immature man or woman who vehemently denies their mistakes and create an opportunity for development for him or her.
