The Challenges of Adult Children Returning Home For the Holidays

As the mother of adult children, it’s normal to experience challenges when they return for the holidays. Your new routines may be disrupted, your old roles may resurface, and both parents and children have expectations for the time spent together. Here are a few questions for your consideration: What are your expectations for the holiday season?  What are your adult children’s expectations? What roles will you feel compelled to step back into? How can you honor your adult children’s desire for freedom and independence? What are your 1-3 priorities for your time together?
