Jack Stoltzfus works with young adults who fail to launch or later return to “the nest”, and with parents who have a difficult time letting go, all the while making sure they maintain a positive, caring relationship.
In this episode, Jack explains:
- What’s changed: we couldn’t wait to get gone from our familial home, that’s often not the case today.
- Helicopter parents
- How a definition of “success” could well differ between parent and young adult
- Parental guilt
- How difficulties can breed resilience
- Don’t push them out, pull them out and how volunteerism helps with that
- The statistic that one in four young adults cut off communication with parents
It’s a serious subject for those who are in the middle of it, but Jack lightens it up with a few personal anecdotes. Watch for his upcoming book The Launch Code: Loving and Letting Go of Our Adult Children.
