Summary

Writing from firsthand experience, Allison Bottke identifies the lies that kept her, and ultimately her son, in bondage - and how she overcame them. Additional real-life stories from other parents appear throughout the audio.

A tough-love guide to coping with dysfunctional adult children, Setting Boundaries with Your Adult Children will empower families by offering hope and healing through S.A.N.I.T.Y. - a six-step program to help parents regain control in their homes and in their lives.

S = STOP enabling, STOP blaming yourself, and STOP the flow of money
A = Assemble a support group
N = Nip excuses in the bud
I = Implement rules/boundaries
T = Trust your instincts
Y = Yield everything to God

Tough love

This is a liberating approach, though one which requires much strength. I will endeavour to start on this journey… we need more on this topic to help with the process of launching our young adults to an empowered life

Focus on Christian views

I felt surprised when the book suddenly takes an American Christian PoV, so returned the book. I obviously respect any religion, but I felt this should have been clearer.

Preacher heavy

Lots of good advice and guidance but very, very preacher lead. Lots of bible quotes. Sometimes gets a bit too much.
