Summary: A loving way for parents to help kids get back on track.
Review: Larry Stockman has been a family therapist for more than 30 years. He counseled with me on a problem with a "grown-up child" who was struggling to grow up. His technique was so loving and so successful that I suggested we co-author this book. It has helped many families since then help themselves and their children over 18 yrs. who have trouble with being financially or emotionally responsible. The key is for the parent to change first. You are unknowingly participating in a "dysfunctional dance." When one partner "sits it out" the other one (your child) has to reconsider. Dancing alone is no fun. When you as the parent learn to give healthy love you can very significantly impact your adult child. This method works! Oprah Winfrey, when I was on her show, said she was "very moved" by the Parents Bill of Rights. Do you know that you have the RIGHT TO SAY "NO"? Buy the book and learn how...

Summary: Well Written
Review: This well written book gives parents the information needed to deal with children who still feel "we owe them." It puts into perspective how to talk to our adult children and how to respond to their demands. Plenty of good insight and plenty of the right antidotes. A must for every parent who can't seem to cut the cord.
