Mean Mothers
Drawn from research and the real-life experiences of adult daughters, Mean Mothers illuminates one of the last cultural taboos: what happens when a woman does not or cannot love her own daughter. Peg Streep, co-author of the highly acclaimed Girl in the Mirror, has subtitled this important, eye-opening exploration of the darker side of maternal behavior, “Overcoming the Legacy of Hurt.” There are no psychopathic child abusers in Mean Mothers. Instead, this essential volume focuses on the more subtle forms of psychological damage inflicted by mothers on their unappreciated daughters—and offers help and support to those women who were forced to suffer a parent’s cruelty and neglect.

Girl in the Mirror
The one book every mother of a girl age 9 to 19 needs to have on her shelves. Girl in the Mirror is the book we've all been looking for. It teaches us that our daughters' adolescence isn't a time to be gotten through or survived; instead, it's a tremendous opportunity not just to foster social, emotional, and intellectual growth, but to forge new connections between us and our daughters. Drawing on the latest research and interviews with experts in different fields, Girl in the Mirror sheds new light on the journey that is adolescence, the crucial interaction between mother and daughter, and the ways in which our own parenting skills must evolve as our daughters move into a new stage of growth.

Summary of Peg Streep's Daughter Detox
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The Visual Cliff experiment is a test of depth perception and how it is developed. It involves a checkerboard pattern that lies flush under a Plexiglas surface for half of its length, but then slants some four feet, creating the illusion of a sheer drop beneath the solid surface. #2 The infant’s cry is pitched in such a way to get the attention of the adult brain. It is also the most effective way of distracting participants so that they can’t even perform the simplest of subtraction tasks. #3 Babies are hardwired to need their mothers’ attention and love, but they also come equipped with behavio...
Quitting (previously published as Mastering the Art of Quitting)
Find out why the happiest, most successful people have the ability both to persist and to quit Do you believe that "winners never quit and quitters never win"? Do you tend to hang in longer than you should, even when you're unhappy? Our culture usually defines quitting as admitting defeat, but persistence isn't always the answer: When a goal is no longer useful, we need to be able to quit to get the most out of life. In Quitting, bestselling author Peg Streep and psychotherapist Alan Bernstein reveal simple truths that apply to goal setting and achievement in all areas of life, including work, love, and relationships: Without the ability to give up, most people will end up in a discouraging loop. Quitting is a healthy, adaptive response when a goal can't be reached. Quitting permits growth and learning, as well as the ability to frame new goals. Featuring compelling stories of people who successfully quit, along with helpful questionnaires and goal maps to guide you on the right path, Quitting will help you evaluate whether your goals are working for or against you, and whether you need to let go in order to start anew.
