Letting Go of Our Adult Children: When What We Do Is Never Enough

Sometimes our adult children.. * do not finish college. * marry the "wrong" person. * can't keep a good job. * abuse drugs or alcohol. * are gay. * are single parents. * are divorced. * make religious choices we don't understand. * can't raise their own children, leaving us to pick up the slack. * live at home. Where Does That Leave Us? Arlene Harder's warm, compassionate, and longoversue book - based on her case studies and insights from her own experience with her son - provides a positive persective on how parents can drop the guilt - and get on with their lives. Arlene Harder, whose own son experienced severe problems with alcoholism, drug use, and homelessness, is a licensed psychotherapist who specializes in work with parents of adult children. --- from book's back cover
