I Thought I Was the Only One: Grandparent Alienation—A Global Epidemic is a comprehensive and groundbreaking guide to the seemingly increasing intergenerational phenomenon of grandparents who are cut off from adult children and grandchildren. This is a must-read for anyone experiencing the grief, isolation, shame and trauma associated with such situations. By sharing selected experiences from grandparents in their own words along with what has been gleaned from experts in family estrangement, alienation, and legal approaches, Amanda and Matthew bring light and hope to affected grandparents. Themes of bravery, understanding, encouragement, hope, and ultimate love of family enduring amid impossible circumstances are present throughout this pioneering book.

Amanda is a leader and unique voice in the movement to bring help, healing, and awareness for those dealing with the trauma of being an alienated grandparent. In her book, she brings her years of experience, reading, and advocacy to help the thousands of grandparents suffereing with the profound pain of being cut off from contact with their grandchildren. She has probably talked to and reached more alienated grandparents than anyone I know, and it shows in her new book. Highly recommended.
