DON'T LET THEM HURT YOU JUST BECAUSE YOU LOVE THEM This book is about the different 'normals' in life. Normal for some people includes dysfunctional behavior that they are good at disguising. Normal for author Lana Jenkins was being kind, helping others, being a nice person. Lana was rather "low maintenance"-she adapted easily to others' ideas and didn't need to have her own way. That, she discovered, made her the perfect target for manipulating and controlling people-narcissists-who always have to be seen and heard, always have to be right, and who always have to have their own way. The life Lana lived with a narcissist was devastating. It hurt her children and cost them so much.But they survived and did not remain victims. Instead, they renewed their thinking and worked to achieve the success in life that God wants for all of us. Lana shares her experiences in this book so you can learn from them. If you've been there, you know what she means. If you recognize some of these red flags, pay attention to them-they will save you from a lifetime of pain.
