In our new series, we are focusing on a much more difficult set of conversations. This series is titled "Coping with Difficult Adult Children". With that, we will be discussing issues that may occur within the family and possibly how we can handle them as grandparents. The first week of this series dives deeper into the issue of addiction. If this issue brings up unresolved issues that are personal to you and your family, remember that there are hopefully many resources within your community that you can turn to for help.

If you or a loved one are struggling with an issue such as this from the video, please do not hesitate to get help and reach out to others. https://recover.theedgetreatment.com

Sadly this happens more often than we would really like to think about. Fallouts between parents and their adult children for whatever reason are heartbreaking and often lead to distance between grandparents and their grandchildren as well. Today we're talking about how to cope in these circumstances and perhaps find some reconciliation.
