Query: Not the book for the extremely abused

I bought this book thinking it would help me with my two emotionally abusive parents. While this book does give insight to setting boundaries with everyday regular family issues, it gives nothing in reference to the fact of those who are in severe, abusive, controlling and manipulative relationships with parents who may be bipolar and personality disorders. There was only one paragraph section out of the whole book where it referenced to setting boundaries with emotionally abusive spouses, but I would have liked the author to go into more detail about extrememly abusive parents. I found "Healing the Child Within" by Charles Whitfield more helpful.
