Many people come into relationships not to make us happy, but to make themselves happy by using us to do so. In reality, the family can become a source of danger more abruptly than other dens. Insults, humiliation, physical violence are, alas, the norm, and “Beat means love” is a favorite saying of Russian women.

This book is about the dark side of marriage and love, about what turns a family from a safe harbor in prison, about abusers. And not only! Alcohol, bad habits, violence that we ourselves do without knowing it, psychological abuse of children are important topics that we will talk about. And of course you will find tips and ways out of difficult and destructive relationships in the book.
