No matter how old your child is, you’ll always be their parent. Discover how you can sustain your relationship even when you’re no longer under the same roof.
If you thought parenting was hard, wait till your kids grow up.
The older your kids get, the more complicated your relationship becomes.
While conflicts used to revolve around bedtime and homework when they were little, things get a little more serious when they become adults.
Now you’re fighting about their choice of partner, their parenting decisions, or their finances.
Before you could simply send them to their room or ground them, but now they can choose to just leave and not call you for months on end.
Having once had such a significant role in your child’s life, you now feel like you’re just a tiny often-forgotten part of it.
But no matter what happens, you still want to be part of your child’s life. But in order for this to happen in a peaceful and harmonious way, things need to change.
Obviously, you can’t have the same kind of relationship you once had, but you can have a much richer and more meaningful one.
This guide will show you how to navigate this new chapter of your parent-child relationship so you and your adult child can deepen your bond, resolve your issues, and heal from past wounds.

But it’s important to remember that they’ve grown into their own person now, and that’s what you’ve worked so hard for their whole lives.
