FIND A SUPPORT GROUP NEAR YOU!

The “A” step in finding SANITY is to ASSEMBLE a support group. We need a resource that can help us to set appropriate boundaries and get some SANITY in our households. Following the steps outlined in Setting Boundaries with Your Adult Children is a start in addressing this issue. Attending, and/or facilitating a SANITY Support Group in your community is the next vital step in gaining hope as you walk the often painful path to healing.

Do you have an adult child living with you (or elsewhere) whose life has you tied up in knots?
Are their self-destructive choices, addictions and/or life-style breaking your heart and causing you (and perhaps other family members) pain and anguish?
If so, help is on the way!
Setting Boundaries with Your Adult Children – Six Steps to Hope & Healing for Struggling Parents by Allison Bottke hit #1 on the Amazon.com list in the parenting category shortly after it released in February of 2008. Hailed as a landmark resource for parents and grandparents, Setting Boundaries with Your Adult Children will help bring SANITY back to your life!
Setting Boundaries with Your Adult Children brings us face-to-face with a crippling plague sweeping our nation, and through six steps to freedom, invites readers to begin living a life of hope and renewal. In an era when personal accountability has become more and more scarce, it's often the parents who have spent years enabling their children who are now suffering. Feelings of guilt, shame, fear, anger, frustration, and the inability to trust our adult children invade our existence. How do these feelings play into the dynamic of not only accepting, but in some cases encouraging negative behavior in adult children? How can parents and grandparents define boundaries with adult children? In this important book, parents will learn not only to recognize the negative behavior of their adult children, but more important, their own negative responses to it as well. Responses that will need to be altered before change can occur.
