Shownotes

If you’re trying to figure out your new relationship with your young adult children, who are between 21 and 44 years old, without losing your grief on your sanity, this bite of balance is especially for you. Navigating the complexities of this new way of parenting the adults who don’t need your authority, but still “hopefully” value your wisdom, without trying to become their BFF is a dynamic one. In today’s episode, we’re looking at one of many versions to consider, and this one happens to work well, pending your boundaries and beliefs.

Time Stamps:

00:00 Supporting their choices and encouraging a focus on self-improvement

03:49 Understanding and accepting our young adult children where they are in their journey

09:52 Consider the dynamics between moms-daughters-and sons vs fathers’-daughters-and sons

11:29 The joys of less responsibility

14:09 Encouraging healthy boundaries with children without pretending to be best friends
