Are your children becoming adults, or just adult-aged children? Jim Hancock's straight-forward examination into the different life perspectives of current generations challenges worn-out assumptions and creates common ground to help parents train their kids to accept responsibility and behave as adults-in-good-standing. RAISING ADULTS includes an intensely practical 30-day guarantee that you can transform relationships with your children by "doing nothing" — by which he means not practicing a set of toxic behaviors that threaten to turn households into war zones. Hancock invested two decades as a youth worker and has developed over 200 short films for adolescents, parents and adults who work with kids. This book updates the 1999 edition. Jim Hancock is the author of HOW TO VOLUNTEER LIKE A PRO and the co-author of THE PARENT'S GUIDE TO HELPING TEENAGERS IN CRISIS.
