Narrado por: Eric Michael Summerer

A practical, compassionate relationship guide for women who are involved with mother-enmeshed men, mothers who wish to set their sons free, and men dealing with issues of commitment, sex addiction, and unhealthy attachments.

Why can't he commit? Many women find themselves asking this question when in love with a man who won't get married, won't stop womanizing, or refuses to give up his sex addictions. Often this kind of man is bound by an unhealthy attachment to his mother. This phenomenon is called mother-son enmeshment. In When He's Married to Mom, clinical psychologist and renowned intimacy expert Dr. Kenneth M. Adams goes beyond the stereotypes of momma's boys and meddling mothers to explain how mother-son enmeshment affects everyone: the mother, the son, and the woman who loves him. In his twenty-five years of practice, Dr. Adams has successfully treated hundreds of enmeshed men and shares their stories in this informative guide. He provides proven methods to make things better, including:

• Guidelines to help women create fulfilling relationships with mother-enmeshed men
• Tools to help mother-enmeshed men have healthy and successful dating experiences leading to serious relationships and marriage
• Strategies to help parents avoid enmeshing their children

Very helpful to understand enmeshed men

This book was so interesting, I finished it in two days. Useful in understand mother enmeshed men. The author provides stories to demonstrate how adult men are impacted by the enmeshment that was created by their mothers. At the end, the author notes he believes this is a global problem.

Enlightening for women who dated a MEM

This book is a must read if you dated a mother enmeshed man (MEM). It made me realize a lot of my ex’s behaviors were related to his mom. Made me feel sad for him that he couldn’t help it nor realize the horrible effects she had on him as a grown adult. It also made me accept that it’s not entirely my fault and it would have never worked unless he did the work to recognize her control, change himself, and enforce boundaries. The way it is written and structured is great. The author provides much detail and real stories to illustrate the MEM.

Dangerous misinformation.

References to work of a debunked child predators “work” as valid information. Multiple points is sexism and misogyny, very outdated.
