Course Description:
It can be hard to navigate relationships with our adult children. We want the best for them and we’d like their respect. Sometimes the tension of this balance feels impossible. We feel we are walking on eggshells.
There are specific, learnable skills that can help navigate and enliven these relationships. Learn how to stop walking on eggshells! Together we will look at typical roadblocks in relationships between parents and their adult children -- and how to cruise around those blocks.
Course sessions will focus on these topics:
Juanita will send pertinent reading materials in advance of each Zoom class. Our conversations will be informed by what we read for the class, research, and exercising our sense of humor.
By the end of this ten-week course, you will have new skills and perspective for approaching your relationships with your adult child/ren with respect and love.
This is one of Juanita's most requested courses when she offered it at Duke’s Life Long Learning Institute.
