Now That They Are Grown: Successfully Parenting Your Adult Children

Product Description

We don’t stop being parents when our kids are grown...but some things do change. How do parents nurture their adult children while encouraging their independence and maturity? Though the question is very important, the answer isn’t always obvious. As our sons and daughters move into young adulthood, our role of what it means to be loving parents changes dramatically. Now That They Are Grown aims to help parents miss as many potholes as possible in making the transition from parenting children to being parents of young adults. Ronald J. Greer helps parents gain balance by establishing a new, loving relationship with their grown children based on mutual respect, support without intrusion, caring without enabling dependency, and appropriate boundaries. A child’s transition into young adulthood begins a new chapter in the life and dynamic of the family. It is important that we get it right. In Now That They Are Grown, Ron Greer offers pragmatic solutions to help parents let go of their adult children, creating the necessary disconnection; then he offers specific goals in guiding parents to reconnect in a mutually respectful way as adults to adults. Ron does an excellent job of communicating the difference between caring for our adult children without taking care of them. The case studies were particularly helpful. Michael L. Chafin, M. Div., M.
