Interesting book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
A good book to read to understand more of what your twentysomething children are going through.
So Valuable!!!!!!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
after reading Mom, Can I Move Back In.. I realized that I wasn't alone sending my son care packages at 26 years old. I'm not the only mother who speaks to her son and daughter more than once a day. It is helpful to understand my family from a broader perspective. The book helps me too understand how we got here and where we need to go. The characteristics of adulthood are INVALUABLE. I am grateful that someone took the time to look at twentysomethings and their parents so that I can have a guide now that my children are half kids and half adults.
An Outstanding Resource!

As a parent of an adult child I found this book to be an outstanding resource for families dealing with the realities of changing times. The concept of twentysomethings as ADULTescents is well defined and clearly developed by the authors. Using a combination of anecdotes, interviews with focus groups, and summaries of research, the book provides background information and practical strategies for parents facing the challenges of interacting with twentysomethings in a positive and constructive way. As an educator, I also appreciated the attention to the social issues and changing expectations facing young adults, particularly those related to gender roles.
This book is invaluable!

If you have kids in their 20's or even older this book will both educate and absorb you totally. For any parent who finds themselves much more involved in their adult child's daily life than they could ever imagine, this book tells you that you're not alone! The numerous anecdotes sound like the authors must have eavesdropped at my home for the past few years. The book entertains and at the same time feels like it is well researhed and really thoughtful. Baby boomer parents of "adult" children should run to buy it.
