Healing Adult Children of Divorce

Archibald D. Hart · 1991
68/100
👎 Skip It

Archibald Hart fills a real gap here — adult children of divorce are an underserved audience, and his combination of clinical psychology and Christian pastoral care gave many readers their first structured framework for understanding the long shadow of their parents' split. The 1991 publication date is a legitimate limitation as psychological language and frameworks have moved on, and the Christian framing will not speak to secular readers. Still a foundational resource for its specific niche.
