Healthy Parenting: An Empowering Guide for Adult ChildrenIf you grew up in a troubled or dysfunctional family and suffered through a parent's problems with chronic illness, addiction, emotional upheaval, or loss, you probably know what you don't want for your kids. But you may lack the tools and experiences to create the nurturing home you do want: a place where your children's physical and emotional needs are consistently met and where your children feel safe, valued, and loved. In Healthy Parenting, Janet

If you grew up in a troubled or dysfunctional family and suffered through a parent's problems with chronic illness, addiction, emotional upheaval, or loss, you probably know what you don't want for your kids. But you may lack the tools and experiences to create the nurturing home you do want: a place where your children's physical and emotional needs are consistently met and where your children feel safe, valued, and loved.

In Healthy Parenting, Janet Woititz, a leading therapist, contrasts what happens in a healthy family with what happens in an unhealthy family to show just how your own upbringing influences the way you raise your children, and what you can do to make their upbringing better for them. For example:
-- In a healthy family the child is always loved even if the child's behavior is unacceptable. In an unhealthy family not only is the behavior criticized but the child is shamed as well.
-- In a healthy family the parent is teacher and guide. In an unhealthy family the child brings himself up the best he can.
-- In a healthy family there is structure, and reasonable limits are set. In an unhealthy family there is chaos or extreme rigidity.

As both therapist and parent, Janet Woititz can give you the guidance you missed in your childhood and help you avoid the mistakes your parents made.

Flattering, Comfortable, and Perfect for Everyday Wear
Size: Large, Color: Black
This Amazon Essentials tiered midi dress has quickly become one of my favorites! The fit is relaxed but still flattering — it flows nicely without clinging, and the tiers give it a light, feminine shape. The fabric is soft, breathable, and easy to wash, making it perfect for warm days or layering with a cardigan in cooler weather. It’s one of those rare dresses that works just as well for casual outings, errands, or a dinner out. I’ve even worn it to work with sandals and a denim jacket. The length hits just right (mid-calf for me), and it has that effortless, pulled-together look that’s hard to find at this price. If you love comfy, versatile dresses that make you feel put together with zero effort, this one’s a winner!

100% cotton dress
Size: Large, Color: Navy, Size: Large, Color: Navy
I really like the fit of this dress. The details are feminine with top ruching and gold button on the neck. The dress is 100% cotton sateen fabric and is on the thin side and may require a slip if you get a light color. I purchased this dress in navy and black with floral. It has a defined waist and comes to my natural waist. A tiered aline skirt and cap sleeves a cute detail on the trim. I can dress this up with any color belt to define the waist further. I purchased a size large and it fits well with a bit of a roomy waist. I think of o got a medium it maybe to small on top and waist. I got this for $15 on black Friday. Perfect spring and summer dress. Can be a fall dress with tights and a sweater. My only criticism of the dress is the tip of the zipper is not sewed in to the dress and it sticks out when you lift your arm. I did stitch the material into the seam and it only took a few minutes.

Oddly shaped dress
Size: Large, Color: Black
I retuned it because the shape of the dress was little off. I really wanted to like the dress but I didn’t .

Cute for warm weather, but consider sizing down!
Size: X-Small, Color: Golden Yellow Beige Multi Folk Floral
I liked this dress and probably would have kept it if it fit me. The material is not very thick, but I think thin cotton is ideal for a summer dress anyway. The slightly glossy/shiny feel of the sateen is a bit unusual, but didn't bother me. I LOVE that it has pockets. Just keep in mind that something heavy like a phone will weigh the skirt down and make it sit slightly differently. Can't speak to the long-term durability or how it washes, but the overall construction looked decent - no unraveling seams or glaring quality control issues. Sadly, it does not seem TTS to me. I am 5'2", 115lb. Bought my usual XS. It hit about mid-shin, so not too long, but it was quite large, especially in the chest and waist. It was less noticeable with the skirt since it is loose and pretty forgiving - if you are bottom-heavy and nervous about sizing down to fit your upper body, I wouldn't worry too much.
