Title: The Weather House: Living with a Parent with BPD - R. Fraser, MD (Child) Post by: DreamGirl on April 07, 2014, 11:21:13 AM
Book Description This illustrated book for school-aged children provides, through a touching story, clinically sound and age-appropriate information for children, giving them clear answers to frequently asked questions about the borderline personality disorder of a parent, and suggesting ways to cope with the situation. Through analogies of weather patterns, the book describes two days in the chaotic life of David and Mary. Psychoeducational comments are provided throughout the book by a “weather wiz” who explains, in a simple manner, to both the characters and readers, the mother’s sometimes strange behaviors that can be challenging to comprehend. The wonderful illustrations help with the understanding, and lighten the story with humor. This book will help teach children to take some distance, to better understand what is happening at home and how not to feel responsible for their parents’ stormy times. The Authors Lise Laporte, Ph.D., is an assistant professor at the Department of Psychiatry, Faculty of Medicine at McGill University. She is the director of research at the McGill University's Health Center's Personality Disorders Program. Ronald Fraser, MD, is a psychiatrist and professor at McGill and Dalhousie Universities.
