Eva Brown, who coined the acronym ''ACMI'' (Adult Children of the Mentally Ill), wrote this book as a supportive and encouraging guide for dealing with the challenging legacy of growing up with a mentally ill parent. Richly peppered with quotes from interviews with ACMIs, My Parent''s Keeper covers issues ranging from being a ''parentified child'' to dealing with unstable aging parents.
