Our society today, is full of broken people. Those who come from a broken home are definitely broken in one way or the other. Every child needs a complete healthy home, only then can the potential of such child be fully harnessed. The emotional trauma can keep the child from venturing forward in life and the worst part is that such a person may repeat his/her parents mistake and their children become worse than they are, if they do not heal from the trauma. From my experience as one who came from a broken home and my struggles through childhood and teen-age has taught me that the society is fighting the battle only on one side. If you try to stop the rate of divorce from rising, what about those who are born in dysfunctional or already broken homes? Their brokenness could lead to more divorce in the future. While we try to curb divorce, we should also help children from already broken homes heal and reconnect, that way we can really reduce the rate of divorce, reduce the amount of chaos and have emotionally healthy individuals in the society. The steps in this book helped me, it can help you too.

In this original examination of America's post-9/11 culture, journalist Faludi shines a light on the country's psychological response to the attacks of that terrible day. Turning her observational powers on the media, popular culture, and political life, Faludi unearths a barely acknowledged societal drama shot through with baffling contradictions. Why, she asks, did our culture respond to an assault against American global dominance with a frenzied summons to restore "traditional" manhood, marriage, and maternity? Why did we react as if the hijackers had targeted not a commercial and military edifice but the family home and nursery? The answer, she finds, lies in a historical anomaly unique to the American experience: the nation was forged in traumatizing assaults by nonwhite "barbarians" on town and village. That humiliation lies concealed under a myth of cowboy bluster and feminine frailty, which is reanimated whenever threat and shame looms.--From publisher description.
