Emotional Blackmail: When the People in Your Life Use Fear, Obligation, and Guilt to Manipulate You

Author: Dr Susan Forward, Donna Frazier, Susan Forward

Editorial review of the book

Do any of the above sound familiar? They're all examples of emotional blackmail, a powerful form of manipulation in which people close to us threaten to punish us for not doing what they want. Emotional blackmailers know how much we value our relationships with them. They know our vulnerabilities and our deepest secrets. They are our mothers, our partners, our bosses and coworkers, our friends and our lovers. And no matter how much they care about us, they use this intimate knowledge to give themselves the payoff they want: our compliance.
