What’s inside

Knowing you need a boundary is the easy part. Saying it, and keeping it when someone pushes back, is the hard part. Clear Lines walks you through it: spot where you need a limit, build a script in your own words, pick from ready ways to say no, plan replies to guilt trips and anger, and track follow-through. A final page helps with the guilt that often comes after. For teens and adults.

  • I'm allowed to...
