Summary of Yong Kang Chan's Parent Yourself Again

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.

Sample Book Insights:

#1 I wanted my parents to understand and support my career choice, but they were always criticizing me and telling me that I didn’t know how to think about the future. I felt like they didn’t support or approve of my choice.

#2 When I became a real adult and stopped seeking approval from my parents, I let go of my unrealistic expectations of what they could do for me. I no longer tried to force them to accept my career path, and I didn’t have to explain anymore why I was writing books and teaching students.

#3 Parent Yourself Again is a book that helps you address the inner child and the inner parent, two aspects of the mind that can be difficult to deal with. It teaches you how to reconcile them so they can work together as a team.

#4 The parent-child relationship is not just external, but also internal. The inner child and the inner parent are not in balance, and this can impact us. We will work on the inner parent to help it grow and become a better parent for our inner child.
