About this episode

Dr. Kathy Koch discusses how parents can adjust to their adult children's new independence and the changing dynamics of their relationships.

Dr. Kathy Koch wants to help parents adjust to a “new normal” when their children become adults. The relationship has changed, and parents of adult kids need to change their expectations, listen more and advise less, break free from codependency, and give these new adults space and freedom to become the people God made them to be.
