My father and mother have been married now for more than fifty years.
This is the main trouble I have with this book so far; it's pretty much entirely blanket statements and sweeping generalizations in the service of a (plausible, compelling) narrative, backed up almost entirely by anecdotes or simple assertion. How many fathers are actually abusive? Is there in fact a strong correlation between having an abusive father, and becoming one?
