How to Connect With Your Adult Children ― Strategies for Families in Pain

What to Do When Parenting Gets Painfully Complicated

Are your adult child's mental, emotional, and physical health issues driving you to despair? Are you tempted to bail your son or daughter out of yet another impossible circumstance?

When your child has reached (or long since passed) the point of independence, it's difficult to know what your "help" as a parent should look like.

Following her bestselling book Setting Boundaries®with Your Adult Children, Allison Bottke offers an in-depth guide to build your confidence, knowledge, and hope as your child walks through specific situations such as...

• incarceration
• financial trouble
• disabilities
• military trauma
• personality disorders
• divorce

Take a step back and let this book help you determine the best action plan for loving your adult child—without sacrificing your sanity.
