When your adult child stops talking to you, many parents' biggest fear is they'll never come back. If silence goes on for months or years, you might naturally wonder if the unthinkable has happened, and the relationship with your child(ren) is actually over.
In this hopeful episode, therapist and host Tina Gilbertson argues that estrangement itself is a sign the relationship is still alive.
Find out how to use this time to strengthen the relationship, even when it appears there's no movement.
As long as you yourself are learning, growing, healing and evolving, your relationship with your adult child(ren) is potentially doing the same.
For evidence-based information and tools to repair your relationship with your estranged adult child(ren), read Tina's book, Reconnecting With Your Estranged Adult Child. https://amzn.to/2ZhetMe
