Jo Nisbet s extremely beautifully written but often harrowing chronicle of her heroic efforts to find help for her troubled teenage daughter Emily should be required reading for parents, teenagers, and mental health professionals alike. A sensitive, soulful fourteen-year-old who creates lovely poetry, Emily also struggles with addictions, violent tantrums, and suicidal threats, causing harm to both herself and to her family. A Story of Tough Love describes a mother s relentless journey to access professional services for Emily, often with heartbreakingly disappointing results.
One feels deeply grieved for the suffering of Emily, her mother, and the entire family. This unusually frank and revealing account reminds us of the huge cost of private family pain, and should reawaken all our efforts whether as parents or as professionals to share experiences like this with one another in the hope of learning.
