Cobra, then why are you posting on a message board? And don't go translating into "I want you to stop posting" or anything silly like that.
That remark was directed at my preceding statement in that I found value in Schlessinger’s works, regardless of her personal character. It was my opinion only and I didn’t want to get into a shouting match over it. If I think a monkey wrote a good book, then so be it (and that doesn’t mean I think Schlessinger is a monkey).
And do you realize that you just insulted Michelle there, accusing her to some degree of plagiarism?
You know this is not so. There was someone in the 80’s whom I can’t remember that started up the codependence idea. There have been tons of books written since. I don’t think any of those committed plagiarism and I don’t think Michelle did either.
