Timeless Wisdom with Real Action Steps
Format: Paperback
I was blessed to read this book prelease and am delighted to share that this book is a must read for all parents with adult children. Dr. Kathy provides very helpful insight in first understanding the foundations of the relationship based on the core needs of the parent and the child. Her explanations are very convicting but I don't feel condemned for previous shortcomings; rather I feel inspired to improve and apologize. I particularly appreciate the realistic action steps and examples of actual words to think/speak in the first person so I can retrain myself to think, speak, and relate to my children.
Dr. Kathy equips readers by providing step by step explanations of 1) What to do; 2) Why it works and; 3) How to do it .
It is brilliant and so helpful. However, she does not provide false hope because sometimes love is not enough in the case of prodigals and she shares Truth with parents and acknowledges the the very real pain and loneliness that can result then follows-up with real action steps and reminds us of our hope in Christ.
As always, the wisdom in the book is timeless and can be applied across multiple relationships in life including my relationship with my own parents where I am the child and even in communicating with my husband. I am grateful for the Celebrate Kids ministry and Dr. Kathy. I am constantly learning something new and am grateful.

Real action steps. You will love this book!
Format: Paperback
If you have adult children, I promise you will be blessed by this book. So many times books have good insight, but then when life happens, it is easy to forget the wisdom of the book. This book is different. It has real actionable steps that you can take to help parents let go of their children. As we raise little people, it’s easy to wrap your identity up in your family life. This book helped me see where I was still finding identity in my kids and how to make sure that we are finding our identity and healthier ways. She includes a Declaration of Release in the book. Reading it brought tears to my eyes. It made me realize it’s OK to grieve the young family we once had but also to embrace my growing and maturing adult children. I want to have a healthy relationship with my kids and their spouses and I’m confident this book is like a very wise friend offering advice and walking this path with me. I was blessed to read a free copy of the ebook but I’ve already purchased my own paper copy of the book so I can make notes and refer back to it more easily.

A little too strong on religion and preachy, which I could have done without.
