One of the best books for parents who struggle to parent adult children. Bottke writes with an authentic voice, having experienced her own share of hardship with her son. Recommended

I am currently reading How to Connect with Your troubled Adult Children. It is definitely not a book I want to rush through. I have to take my time and marinate on all of the information it offers. Already I am seeing in a new light how to connect with one of my own adult kids who unfortunately has a sense of entitlement. This adult child constantly thinks they deserve certain privileges and most times I am inept in my way of dealing with it. Instead of shrinking back with resentment and frustration, I am learning a few new tricks and strengthening my resolve to use positive solutions in our situation. This book is empowering me and giving me hope.

Found this book to be really helpful, written in a friendly manner, it is a truly comforting read, which lets you know you arent alone, this isnt your fault.
Packed full of advice, this book deals with personality disorders, mental and emotional disabilities, depression and much more. ... as well as making you realise the worth of self care. Would recommend to anyone struggling with a relationship with their grown up child. Thank you to the author, publisher and netgalley for allowing me to read in return for an honest review. 5 stars

If parenting has gone seriously amiss and your child has gone completely off the rails, this book is for you. The author lets you know you aren’t alone, gives you sound advice on how to deal with your child’s manipulations, financial demands, and repeated bouts with the law.
