As we become adults, our relationships with our parents should change, but many people are still in a child-parent dynamic well into adulthood. Dr. Cloud talks about why you might find yourself stuck in that situation and what you can do to make a change. If you are going to have the best relationship possible with your parents as an adult you must be an adult yourself. Most of our struggles with our parents deal with unresolved dependency. Whether emotionally, financially, or spiritually, we must be free to be our own person and not still seek a need for approval from our parents.

Would you please do a video on how to recover from betrayal trauma?

[@moniquejoubert8453]

How do I deal with siblings who disagree with my boundaries towards taking care of parents? IE - not wanting a parent living with me permanently but willing to contribute towards living arrangements etc?

[@littlepixel1650]

Absolutely never move a parent in. They will stay there until they pass. It can be 40 years of being the parent in that arrangement.

[@kaylahspann7528]

Is there still a Dr. Cloud show to call in to? If so, would someone mind to share the number?

[@karenbuck6145]

Sometimes I regret having children!

[@AGNETHAFALTSK0G]

[@xFailage]

Got a sibling whose like mid 30s, depending on our parents, and an absolute nuisance to be around

[@T-rick]

Same except mine are 21 and can't get their shit together

[@conradmbugua9098]

This is usually a parenting problem, the parents spoil the child because of their own trauma of lacking in their childhood, so they try to live through their children which backfires

[@karenbuck6145]

Give a teaching on how treat or respond to elderly parents

[@itzelr3514]

The question is how to be free? 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@karenbuck6145]

We have devoted many years to our children to be dropped like a hot potato😢

[@conradmbugua9098]
