Does your child have trouble making and keeping friends? 

Are you unsure about how to help? 

We all hope that our children will make meaningful connections with peers and mentors. When they struggle with making friends it is difficult not to worry. Often, our first instinct is to try to teach specific social skills and manners but the truth is that strong relationships come from the inside out. What we call charisma can be broken down into empathy and confidence. Self-awareness and self-acceptance are the foundation of your child’s social life.

All children are sad, anxious, irritable, or aggressive at times. Occasionally kids find it challenging to sit still, pay attention, or interact with others. In most cases, these are just typical phases in their development. However, these behaviors may indicate a more serious problem in some children. Without attention, these mental health conditions can prevent children from reaching their full potential. 

Whether your child is doing fine and you want to  prevent future mental health issues, or your child just  doesn’t seem like their usual self, or has actually  declared suicidal thoughts, you can help.

You may be surprised to learn that almost half (46.5%) of young adults 18-24 years old live with their parents. Are you one of those parents? Are you wondering when do our children really become adults? 18? 21? When they clear their stuff out of our basement? Is 30 the new 21? 

Even if your kids aren’t consistently living with you, you may wonder what this evolving relationship should look like. Do we need to “let go” or silence ourselves now? How do we stay connected and adjust expectations as our children mature? 

If you are living with your young adult child, it can be a meaningful last opportunity to see your child grow or a headache with no end in sight.

If you remember trying to guess the contents of your college decision envelope by how thick it was, some things have changed. While college decisions may be delivered through email, web portals, or even instagram now, the emotional experience is the same. How do you prepare them and how do you prepare yourself?
