Parenting Our Young Adults With Love and Backbone: The Practice of Supportive Integrity - Jack Stoltzfus - Bog

The goal of this book is to provide general principles and guidelines that parents can follow that speak to the need to be understanding, loving, forgiving, and compassionate while exhibiting backbone-the ability to say "no." In most cases guidelines and principles are followed by applications and examples. Being a parent of a young adult is more challenging than at any other time in history, yet parents of young adults are often ignored with a view that their job is done, so education and resources are often in short supply. This book will help you learn why, how, and when to stand your ground and set limits that will enable your young adult to move toward responsible independence.
