Second Copy

We purchased this book out of desperation. We have a 27 and 33 year old still living with us. This book has done more to help us than any other resource we've used. We held our first family meeting last week and the results changed the mood in our house from angry and sullen to open communication and sharing. Parenting Your Adult Child will help you understand this generation and how they tend to think. The book lays out simple plans for building confidence to help your adult children navigate the world on their own. My husband was so intrigued by all I told him he had me order a second copy. We're still not an empty nest yet, but at least for the first time in a very long time we're making progress.

Be encouraged! There is help for you and hope for your child!

My husband and I were having problems with our 22 year old son. He lacked motivation, purpose and a job. This book helped strengthen our backbones, to do the right thing for our son and ourselves. Three years later, he has a great job, is living on his own and is a pleasure to be around. The process was tough, but the results are well worth the effort. I have recommended this book to another couple and they are very happy with changes their son has made in his life. If you want help and hope, read this book and do what it says. It works!

A Must Have for ALL Parents of Adult Children

This book is awesome!!! Very loving but DIRECT and to the point. I had been searching for something with some real meat to it for my own parenting issues. Glad I purchased this one!!!!

Standing on Solid Ground

I found this book to be very helpful. It's so easy to over-manage our children and in the long-term not help them mature. This book gave solid examples and helps parents to stay grounded. I recommend it frequently.
