Publisher's summary

Have you ever had the feeling that you were left waiting for something to happen in your life because your children have moved out and you no longer feel needed? Did it bother you? Most people have been through the empty nest after their children were born. It’s a transition that is often painful but also liberating when it’s complete and your kids are on their own and you can finally do what you want, not just what they want.

It can be a difficult time when a parent finally decides to leave their child's life and they head off into the world with someone else. Will your kids still love you? Will your children still want to see you or speak with you on a regular basis? What about all of the closeness that was once there; will it ever return? Is this goodbye forever, and does that mean that the bond between parents and adult children is never going to be quite the same again?

Every family situation is different, but these questions are always in the back of our minds when we fight through those empty nest moments. We've already done so much for our children and now it seems like all of those efforts were for nothing. Our kids don't need us anymore, at least not in the same way that they once did. We're worried our nest is empty, and we're worried that our children are going to leave us behind without ever looking back.

There are a lot of misconceptions about parenthood that can make things really hard for parents to navigate those empty nest bumps in the road. This book corrects the many things that we believe about parenting and it shows us how to have a great relationship with our families, even if they don't live with us anymore.

This book covers:
  • What’s your family dynamic?
  • The Changing Relationship
  • A Healthy Parent-Adult Child Relationship
  • Healing from an unhealthy relationship
And Much more.

The Empty Nest Syndrome was a strong feeling that many parents experienced when their children were about to leave the home. It might have been several years after having your last child finally leave the family nest, but it could also occur within several months of the last baby leaving.

From this book, you will discover the secrets to working with your parents and your kids to have the best working relationship for all. It will teach you how to regain the love and closeness you used to share with your children, while helping them make a smooth transition into adulthood, as well.

This book is a perfect guide that will change how you feel and how you act toward your children once they move out. It is a skill that can be learned, but it requires guidance and a great deal of hard work.

You may be worried about what to do next, but this book will help guide you down the right path for success.
