A “wonderfully innovative” (Jennifer Senior, New York Times
bestseller All Joy and No Fun), much-needed guide for parents of
people in their twenties and thirties from one of the world’s
leading developmental psychologists. Your child is now an adult,
but your job as a parent is far from over. Instead, your role must
evolve to meet their ongoing, changing needs. But what exactly are
these new needs? And why are they so different now than they were
when you were a young adult? This is the first comprehensive guide
written for parents whose children are in two of the most crucial
decades of life. Steinberg discusses topics as various as whether
you should be involved in your child’s college education, how to
behave when they unexpectedly must move back home, how to state
your opinion on their romantic partners, what to do when you
disagree with the way they are raising their own child, and what
parameters to apply if you want to give them money for a home or
startup. He answers such challenging questions as: When do I
express my opinion and when should I bite my tongue? How do I know
if my son is floundering? Is it okay to help my daughter with her
grad school application? What should I do if my kid is getting
seriously involved with someone I think is dangerous? We have been
helping our twenty-five-year-old financially for the last few
years, but how long is too long? How can I help my adult child
through a difficult psychological time? Leading psychologist
Laurence Steinberg has devoted his forty-five-year career to
researching parent-child relationships. Here, he provides some
“must-read” (Martin Seligman, PhD, author of The Hope Circuit)
principles to help parents with adult children think more
intelligently about common issues, avoid minefields, weather the
inevitable ups and downs, and create a stronger, happier, more
effective bond with their child.
