À propos de cet audio

 From an expert in adolescent psychology comes a groundbreaking, timely, and necessary guide for parents of the 2.2 million young adults in America who are struggling to find their way in the world.

In Dr. Mark McConville's decades of experience as a family clinical psychologist, perhaps no problem has been more fraught than that of young adults who fail to successfully transition from adolescence into adulthood. These kids--technically adults--just can't get it together: They can't hold a job, they struggle to develop meaningful relationships, and they often end up back in their parents' spare bedroom or on the couch. In fact, studies show that 1 in 4 Americans aged 25 to 34 neither work nor attend school, and it's a problem that spans all socioeconomic and geographic boundaries.

McConville investigates the root causes of this problem: Why are modern kids "failing to launch" in ever-increasing numbers? The key, McConville has found, is that they are struggling with three critical skills that are necessary to make the transition from childhood to adulthood--finding a sense of purpose, developing administrative responsibility, and cultivating interdependence. In Failure to Launch, McConville breaks these down into achievable, accessible goals and offers a practical guide for the whole family, to help parents instill those skills in their young adults--and to get their kids into the real world, ready to start their lives.

This book spoke to me in so many ways. I felt relief, hopeful and better prepared on how to deal with my young adult child who is stuck and not transitioning to adulthood in an effective manner. Better than any counselling session I have ever had. If I could hug the author in person I would!

I loved the clarity and simplicity of the information on a topic that can be so emotionally exhausting. I especially loved the humor used…found myself laughing out loud more than a few times! Felt like both the parent and the young transitioner were supported in a beautiful way but still made to understand their roles in the problem. Excellent read!

Amazingly helpful!
