You're Not Done Yet Parenting Young Adults in an Age of Uncertainty [Audiobook]

In You're Not Done Yet, two leading adolescent and young adult mental health experts provide a practical and compassionate path to parents combatting the worry and frustrating isolation many feel when supporting their twentysomethings. Hibbs and Rostain explain when and how developmental markers changed, and invite parents and young adults to learn new, more effective ways of communicating with each other. Part I of the book covers the "new normal," of young adulthood, with its educational and career changes. The new normal of parent-child relationship asks us to rethink our "shoulds," and in the process develop a closer relationship based on talking and listening to understand each other, rather than "being right." Part II addresses the common and challenging problems that arise when mental illness creates a drag on a young adult's progress, and shows how parents may be engaged in their child's treatment. Packed with helpful information and step-by-step guides to specific problems, this book will be an invaluable resource for parents and their twentysomething children.
