If your adult child is stuck, unmotivated, anxious, avoiding responsibility, and still heavily dependent on you, this episode asks a question most parents are afraid to consider:

Can overprotective parenting impact a young adult’s ability to launch confidently into adulthood?

In this conversation, we unpack what helicopter parenting is and if there's any correlation between that style of parenting and a young adults inability to move forward. Or is there more to it?

This episode is not about blame.
 It’s about awareness.
 And it’s about change.

Because no matter how things got here, you still have influence. And that influence means you can still help your adult child. 

This episode provides you with hope and suggestions. It's never to late to learn how to be the parent your adult child needs, so they can thrive in the world.
