Beautiful Boy by David Sheff is precisely the type of book you're thankful Costco carries, so that it can be purchased by the masses. This honest and well written account of his son Nic's meth and alcohol addiction is one that all parents should read.
Thousands of families struggle secretly, not sharing this all consuming tragedy with anyone. Whether it's anorexia, bipolar, substance abuse and extreme behavior problems, parents who cope share many of the same feelings. Despair, the long term effects of living with irrationality, anger and grief. If for any other reason to read this book, it's to know that you are not alone.
