My daughter, who is about to enter her first year of high school, went through a difficult time during her second year of middle school. Although things have improved a bit now, I ordered this to get some help in becoming closer to her. I look forward to reading it.

One of the parent or the child must be an adult. From the very title and the image of a mother and child engaged in a tug-of-war, I felt a pang of guilt. I wanted to raise my child happily, but I was looking forward to this book because it seemed like it would offer stories that would be helpful in the difficult reality.

In particular, the scenes of a mother and child wrestling in a tug-of-war in this latest book, *One of the Parent or Child Must Be an Adult*, are nothing new.

Upon seeing the title and opening the table of contents, I was filled with anticipation for the contents. It makes one realize that even if one became a parent by chance, if one is already a parent, one must stay fully alert.

This is because becoming a parent and a true adult is desperately needed.

One of the parent or the child must be an adult. Even the title seems to convey the message that parents should act like proper parents. I am a huge fan of Lim Young-ju Audio Clip, Lim Young-ju Parent Education TV, and YouTube. Thank you always for helping me with every moment I spend with my child.

Dr. Im Young-ju's new book!!! I heard about the new release through the blog and was looking forward to it, so I read it slowly and savored every moment after receiving it:) It is a must-read for parents, children, and adults alike, and it was a truly healing experience.
