I heard about this book and Tannen’s others a few years ago and it was like the dam broke for me. I am a direct communicator and my mom and sister are not. Because of those different ways of communicating, there was a misunderstanding and my sister told me that she doesn’t want me in her life. Wish I had read this book before the misunderstanding.
