Maybe this author should actually spend time with 'families' before she writes about them! I think there was maybe one good chapter and the rest was a bunch of "B.S."!She may have talked with cops but let's face it that hardly gives a true picture as to what it means to be married to and in a police family.Let's see how her book would change after being married and having a family with a cop for 10+ years. It is different on the "inside" and "outsiders" never are given the "whole story" NEVER! It is part of the "game" part of the life...keeping others out/protecting the 'family' the 'department family'.
