1. Failure To Launch
Why Your Twentysomething Hasn't Grown Up...and What to Do About It
A practical guide for parents of dependent twentysomethings, explaining the developmental dynamics that keep young adults stuck—such as anxiety, avoidance, and overhelpful caregiving—and offering a step-by-step method to shift from rescuing to consulting, set firm yet collaborative expectations, foster accountability, and build autonomy through small, achievable tasks, illustrated with case studies, conversation scripts, and tools to help emerging adults take ownership of school, work, relationships, and everyday responsibilities.
