What To Do When Your Adult Child Blocks You

from The Reconciled Relationships Podcast · host Sally Harris

What do you do when your adult child blocks you and refuses to speak to you? In this episode of The Sally Harris Show, I sit down with a mom from Ottawa, Canada who shares the heartbreaking reality of being blocked by her daughter and experiencing years of silence from her children. After a difficult season during the pandemic that included illness and a financial mistake, the relationship with her children changed dramatically. Since then, she has been navigating the deep sadness, confusion, and longing that many moms feel when contact suddenly disappears. Together we talk about the emotional impact of estrangement, the pain of holidays passing without a call or message, and the difficult question many moms ask themselves: How do you move forward when your child won't speak to you? We also discuss the powerful shift that begins to happen when a mom starts to forgive herself, rediscover her identity beyond motherhood, and allow God to bring peace into the middle of the pain. If you are a mom walking through estrangement with your adult child, please know you are not alone. Stories like this help remind us that healing and hope are still possible. If today's conversation spoke to you and you'd like guidance on your own situation, I offer a Heart-to-Heart Consultation. A Heart-to-Heart Consultation is a guided call to help you find clarity and direction in your healing process. This is not a coaching call, but a conversation where we explore whether group coaching or one-on-one coaching may be the right next step for you.
