giving you the tools you need
Parenting the toughest job in the world but when does it end? Some people will tell you never and some will tell you at age 18. What do you do if you feel taken advantage of, potentially used and abused by adult children that remain dependent on you for reasons other than documented disabilities or extended college degrees? Advising parents regarding their adult children there is rarely one single simple answer but a plan that is mapped out with thoughtfulness for the best interest of the adult child and the parents. Many parents are worried about their children ending up on the streets, homeless, or even worse their grandchildren. It becomes an internal tug of war for the parent wanting to help but not enable and attempting to find that line that is useful support. The complete transition to adulthood does not happen until adult children are supporting themselves financially intellectually, and emotionally. The definition is clear it is the bridge the adult children must cross before they attain true adulthood that is not always illuminated with clarity.
