5.0 out of 5 stars Will change the way you think about parenting, love and forgiveness, January 3, 2014 By Hilary Buff Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Fifth Child: The Turbulent Path That Led to Parenting Our Child's Child (Paperback) I have read some powerful books about parenting and addiction over the years. I thought Lynne Gassel would present another tragic story about addiction and loss. However, Fifth Child goes beyond eloquently presenting her own families struggles. Lynne Gassel provides beautiful and helpful insight into love, marriage, forgiveness and parenting. She checked her ego at the door, and presents a lens in which the reader can learn and grow throughout the book. This is an important book for new parents, families struggling with addiction, parents and children who may be viewing their relationship negatively, and anyone who believes in the human ability to forgive and love again.
