About this episode
Send us Fan MailThis episode may be uncomfortable for some parents to hear.If your adult child is in their 20s or 30s and still living at home, not working, not studying, not contributing, or showing little direction for their future, you may have asked yourself:“What can I do if they don’t want to change?”If you’re parenting an adult child who is struggling with independence, motivation, responsibility, confidence, or launching into adulthood, you may also be dealing with enabling, rescuing, tolerating, making excuses, being disrespected, of living in fear and of doing things for them they can do for themselves.This episode takes a closer look at what happens when parents reach this point and begin wondering what they can do next if they really want their adult child to launch.But be warned: this one may hit a nerve. 🐦It's official! The Journey to Independence by itself is no longer available.
