The digital recording will be released to all participants 48 hours after the live webinar. 

This webinar will address the rewards and challenges of parenting young people who are ages 18 to 29. This will include a description of recent societal changes that have extended the space between adolescence and full adulthood, creating a new life stage of “emerging adulthood” in between. Problems and mental health issues common to ages 18 to 29 will also be identified and discussed. Relations with parents during this new life stage will be highlighted, including the rewards and the challenges.

The first part of the webinar will inform participants about normal development from ages 18 to 29, including how what is “normal” has changed over the past half century, as education has become broader and longer and as ages of entering marriage and parenthood have come later. Historical developments over the past 70 years leading to the rise of the new life stage of emerging adulthood will be outlined. Read More
