When children grow up with emotionally immature parents, they don't just experience emotional neglect — they adapt. In Episode 2 of 6 in the Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents series, we explore the survival roles many children unconsciously take on to stay connected, safe, or unseen in emotionally immature family systems. These roles are not personality traits — they are coping strategies. And many of them continue shaping our relationships, boundaries, and self-worth well into adulthood. In this episode, we discuss: The responsible child who grew up too fast The invisible child who learned not to need much The peacekeeper who managed everyone else's emotions The rebel who expressed what the family couldn't tolerate Why many adults identify with more than one role Common misconceptions about childhood roles Why understanding these patterns matters for adult healing This episode isn't about blaming parents — it's about understanding the emotional environment you adapted to, so you can begin responding differently now.

We explore what it means to parent in adulthood's most ambiguous stage—when children are grown but still growing. Extension educator and mom-of-five Cindy Thompson joins us to share insights on boundaries, financial support, and staying connected as adult children find their own way.Support the showSend us an email: parenting@iastate.edu.Find us on Facebook: @scienceofparent.This institution is an equal opportunity provider.

“I'm not enough,” I think to myself, as I pass a couple in love on the street. “I could never have a relationship like that. I'm not worthy. Even if someone liked me, they'd just get bored eventually and move on.”“I'm not enough,” I think to myself as I hit publish after writing an article all day. “I should have 5,000 subscribers by now. Then maybe my voice would matter.”Discover a more shamelessly sexy world

Episode 527 | What Is Emotional Immaturity? (Series Part 1 of 6) Many adults grow up believing their childhood was "fine," yet still struggle with emotional connection, boundaries, and self-trust as adults. In this episode, we begin a 6-part series exploring what it means to be an adult child of emotionally immature parents.   Emotional immaturity isn't always loud or obvious. Sometimes it shows up in subtle ways—dismissed feelings, lack of emotional safety, or parents who couldn't meet you emotionally even if your physical needs were met. In this episode, we explore: What emotional immaturity actually is Common signs of emotionally immature parents Why many adults don't realize this applies to them The difference between subtle vs. obvious emotional neglect This episode is about awareness, not blame. Understanding emotional immaturity helps you make sense of patterns you may still be carrying today—without minimizing your experience. ✨ This is the foundation for the entire series and a powerful entry point for new listeners.

Talking to your adult children about a covert narcissistic parent is one of the hardest and most emotionally loaded challenges survivors face. You're carrying years of truth inside you — experiences that shaped your life, your self-concept, your safety, and in many cases, the childhood environment your kids grew up in. And yet, speaking that truth openly can feel dangerous. It can feel like badmouthing. It can feel like you're putting your children in the middle. It can feel like you're betraying them or burdening them. But silence isn't healing either.And your children will eventually have questions — real, hard, vulnerable questions. In this episode, we break down exactly how to navigate those conversations with honesty, clarity, and emotional integrity. You'll learn how to talk about your lived experience without attacking their other parent, how to answer direct questions using grounded truth rather than character statements, and how to model the healthy communication and relational skills your children never got to see growing up. We explore: Why defending yourself often backfires — and what to do instead How to focus on values rather than the other parent's behavior How to give your children the freedom to think for themselves How to model emotional safety, regulation, accountability, and repair What to say when they ask, “Why did you leave?” or “Did you fight a lot?” How your healing teaches them more than your explanations ever will This episode is filled with real stories, practical examples, and compassionate guidance for every parent walking the tightrope between truth and protection. If you feel misunderstood by your adult children, if you've been unfairly judged, or if you're afraid to say the wrong thing — this conversation will help you find your footing again. Because you can talk to your children about what happened.You can honor your truth without dishonoring theirs.And you can be the safe, grounded parent they return to as they begin making sense of their own story.

This conversation was originally aired on 2 September 2021Victor grew up in a family where alcohol was abused. His father was frequently violent, and to survive, Victor became hyper-vigilant and sensitive to the moods of his parents. As a child, Victor found refuge outside of the family, playing with friends in the wild areas near his home. As he grew, he recognised in himself an impulse to heal his family through humour and by trying to form relationships with his siblings. Eventually he found that he was unable to bring about the healing he desired.On a holiday in Indonesia as an adult, Victor experienced both despair (in a bar) and elation (at a volcano). Soon after, he decided to seek help from 12 Step groups, first Adult Children of Alcoholics and then Al-Anon Family Groups. Here he found the support he needed alongside other people who understood his grief and frustration.In Al-Anon, Victor gradually gained the confidence to share his story and began to understand that his feelings of fear and hopelessness were common to many people whose lives had been affected by someone else's drinking. He now gives thanks for nature and has much gratitude in his life.If someone else's drinking is causing you a problem, then you can phone the Al-Anon Family Groups helpline on 1300 252 666 or go online at al-anon.org.au for more information.Show your support by donating to 3CR https://www.3cr.org.au/donate#Alcoholism #Al-Anon #Recovery

What if “calm” isn't emotional regulation — but a trauma response? In this compassionate teaching episode, Amie Woolsey clarifies what emotional regulation really is (and isn't). Discover how to recognize suppression, spiritual bypassing, and fawning patterns — and learn how to come back to safety in your body without pretending to be “okay.”Perfect for anyone healing from betrayal trauma, addiction dynamics, or relational wounds.

This episode (#306) addresses a common but painful question from betrayed partners: “Is my spouse a narcissist, or just showing narcissistic tendencies?” Mark and Steve explain that while the term “narcissist” has become a cultural buzzword, true narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) is rare and defined by a complete absence of empathy. In contrast, addicts in denial often appear narcissistic because they're reacting defensively from fear and shame. Their hurtful behaviors—blame-shifting, gaslighting, and emotional withdrawal—mimic narcissism but stem from self-protection, not superiority.The hosts emphasize that what matters most isn't the label but the destination. Whether the issue is narcissism, addiction, or emotional immaturity, the key question is: Where is this relationship heading if nothing changes? The described situation clearly reflects an abuse cycle—one fueled by denial, volatility, and manipulation. For the addict, breaking that cycle means pausing reactivity, taking full ownership, and seeking specialized recovery help rather than generic therapy. True healing begins only when defensiveness gives way to empathy and accountability.For the betrayed partner, safety and support come first. Isolation only deepens the trauma, so finding community through trusted friends, family, or support groups like S-Anon and SALifeline is essential. She must set firm boundaries and remember that protecting her partner from consequences is not the same as loving him. The episode closes with practical resources—including books like The Gaslighting Recovery Workbook and Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents—and a hopeful reminder that even deeply wounded couples can rebuild when they both commit to truth, humility, and genuine change.For a full transcript of this podcast in article format, go to:   Is My Partner a "Narcissist" of does he just have Narcissistic Tendencies?Learn more about Mark and Steve's revolutionary online porn/sexual addiction recovery and betrayal trauma healing program at—daretoconnectnow.comFind out more about Steve Moore at:  Ascension CounselingLearn more about Mark Kastleman at:  Reclaim Counseling Services

When your child goes off to college, starts a career, or gets married, how does your role as mom and dad change? In this program, Chip continues his insightful conversation with Jim Burns, "Doing Life with Your Adult Children."

Tuvia Blau & Hindy Herman on Let's Get real with Coach Menachem Sunday November 2, 2025 #248Healing the Divide Between Parents and Children:Rebuilding Trust After Pain, Distance, and Silence: Opening a Heartfelt Conversation for Parents and Adult Children to Understand, Heal, and Reconnect Together

In this episode, I explore compulsive caregiving from an attachment perspective. This is a more subtle form of insecure attachment that nonetheless affects one's ability to thrive and enjoy healthy relationships. Related terms include over-functioning, codependency, and Nice Guy / Good Girl Syndrome.This is the fourth of a four-part series on how our experiences with caregivers in the first three years of life can impact our emotional regulation, beliefs about ourselves, and adult relationships.Here I discuss:* How early attachment experiences shape compulsive caregiving and the “parentified child” dynamic* How over-functioning, people-pleasing, and codependency share a common root in early life and are an attempt to manage attachment anxiety* How physiologic differences, especially of those who are highly sensitive (HSP/Highly Sensitive Person), may make them more vulnerable* The similarities to other addictive and compulsive behaviors* Where this attachment style would fall if placed on the attachment spectrum* The beliefs, emotional states, behaviors, and communication styles that can be present when someone struggles with compulsive caregiving.* The physical and psychological toll of the often-present chronic stress and emotional repression* Tools and interventions that can help one move towards healing and thriving* Specific resources that support awareness and recovery, including The Drama of the Gifted Child, Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents, and Codependent No MoreAs always, I welcome any comments and questions, as these help guide the information that I share.Until next time,CourtneyTo learn more about non-patient consultations, treatment, and monthly mentorship groups, please visit my website at:CourtneySnyderMD.comLinks to related content:Compulsive Caregiving, Over-functioning, Codependency & Nice Guy/Good Girl SyndromeMedical Disclaimer:This newsletter is for educational purposes and not intended or implied to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment for either yourself or others, including but not limited to patients that you are treating (if you are a practitioner).

A Prayer for God to Continue the Good Word He Has Started by: Gina Smith Parenting doesn’t end when our kids become adults—it simply changes form. In this episode from Gina Smith, we reflect on the truth of Philippians 1:6 and the lifelong process of trusting God to continue His good work in our children. From the early days of learning that every child is uniquely created, to the complex seasons of parenting adult children, this devotion reminds us that God is the one shaping their hearts and guiding their growth. Reference: Philippians 1:6 Prayer: Father, thank you for the promise that you will complete the good work that you have begun in my children, in me, and in our family. Help me to rely on you as you grow my children into their new roles as adults and help me to not have expectations or make everything about me. Help me to be able to patiently step back and allow them to learn and grow as adults and help me to continue to grow and learn in my new role as mom of adult children. I want it all about you and your work in their lives, and not about me and what I hope our relationship might look like.

What if the unspoken rules of your childhood are still shaping your adult life? In this episode of With You in the Weeds, hosts Lynn and Shay Roush share a deeply personal conversation in their Dealing With Your Addictions series. Shay opens up about his upbringing in an alcoholic family, revealing how it impacted his trust, emotions, and relationships.  Here are the sobering statistics: 1 in 6 U.S. children live with an alcoholic parent (1 in 4 with substance abuse); alcoholism drives nearly 50% of divorces; it causes 12,000 annual drunk-driving deaths and 232 million missed workdays; and heavy use shortens life by 2–24 years.  Shay's story highlights that behind every statistic, there is a person and family deeply impacted by alcohol. In addition to lost jobs, DWI's, and stints in rehab facilities, Shay's dad created financial fears that ultimately led to his parent's divorce. Despite periods of sobriety, Shay's father eventually died from alcohol, leaving Shay with a legacy of alcoholism that he didn't want to repeat.  This episode unpacks the 5 spoken rules of alcoholic families that perpetuate the cycle: Don't Trust Don't Talk Don't Feel Play a Role Deny the Impact As a child grows up in this environment, these rules foster Adult Children of Alcoholics (ACOAs) leading to fear of abandonment, difficulty trusting others, people-pleasing, emotional numbness, perfectionism, and addiction tendencies. Shay's journey demonstrates how God's transformative power helped him learn healthier patterns of relating, and break the cycle of addiction in his family, allowing him to be emotionally present for his family despite early temptations. We believe that future generations can be impacted when you name and break the unspoken rules of your alcoholic family and allow God to heal the broken parts of your heart. We recommend the book It Will Never Happen to Me by Claudia Black, for further explanation on the rules of an alcoholic family.  Connect with us & Subscribe to our weekly newsletter!

Even adult children need their parents. But when things get rocky, how can you improve relationships with adult children? In the evolving world of parenthood, maintaining a strong bond with adult children presents unique challenges. As children transition into adulthood, the dynamics shift, often leading to confusion for parents. However, with understanding and a strategic approach, it's possible to improve relationships with adult children and cultivate a healthy, fulfilling family connection. Understanding the Shift in Dynamics Once children turn 18, they are legally considered adults. This milestone often surprises parents who feel uncertain about their new role. As children grow into their independence, they become increasingly determined to make their own choices, sometimes clashing with their parents' ideals. This can lead to emotional chaos and strained relationships. However, understanding these dynamics is the first step to improving relationships with adult children. The Importance of Self-Connection For mothers, connecting with themselves is paramount. As the cornerstone of the family, maintaining inner peace is essential. By prioritizing self-awareness, moms can better navigate the emotional upheavals that come with parenting adult children. Self-care and inner reflection act as the glue that binds the family, providing stability during times of change. Listening and Validating Emotions Open communication is essential for improving relationships with adult children. It is necessary to engage in active listening, validate the emotions of your children, and initiate a dialogue about their feelings and experiences. By acknowledging their perspectives, parents can build a stronger, more respectful relationship. The Role of Faith-Based Strategies For those who treasure faith, integrating it into your parenting approach can help mend and strengthen familial ties. By relying on spiritual guidance, parents can find peace in surrendering their worries and trusting a higher power with their children's paths. This can lead to healing and transformation within the family unit. Read the full show notes and access all links.

The SOUL ON FIRE MOVIE COMES OUT TODAY! GET YOUR TICKETS NOW! I highly recommend that you bring your family to go see this movie!!! This is the most inspirational movie I've ever seen, you'll love experiencing this movie at the theater with other people! In the movie, you will see a great example of unconditional love. John Corbett (My Big Fat Greek Wedding), plays Denny in the movie and you can see him age and see the progession of Parkinson's disease.  My family got to be on set during the filming of the wedding scene of John and Beth O'Leary. My wife took a picture of Denny O'Leary in his wheel chair that day because she saw how happy and joyful he was. John O'Leary says his dad is the most joy filled person he has ever met. And I agree with John, his dad definitely displays the Fruits of the Spirit. In this episode, I read Denny's excert P is for Parkinson's from The ABC's of Christianity - A Father's Inspiration Advice to his Adult Children. And I also share some of my own thoughts about Denny and reflect on his writing to his adult children that was not meant for the public. But when people found out about what he wrote, they asked for copies. Denny printed about 1,000 of these and I was blessed to receive one from Denny before he passed away. One thing that blows everyone away, Denny refers to his Parkinson's as a gift. Imagine that, a disease that will progress to the point of you not being able to cause you to become weak, lose to the ability to move and ultimately kill you, and being able to appreciate what receiving his Parkinson's disease made possible and how it changed his life. There is a quote from Denny in the movie that people love, "You can't choose the path you walk in life, but you can choose how you walk it." Let me know what your thoughts are about this episode at TheChristianDad@gmail.com or DM me on Messenger or post in The Journey of a Christian Dad Facebook Group.

This week on The Pete the Planner Show, we're tackling one of the toughest money dilemmas families face today: when helping your adult children turns into hurting yourself. A listener writes in about her 31-year-old daughter who still lives at home, contributes nothing financially, and has become the center of a tug-of-war between supportive love and enabling behavior. Pete, Kristen, and Damian unpack the concept of financial enmeshment—those blurred parent/child roles where support becomes indefinite, boundaries vanish, and retirement plans quietly suffer. Why is this happening more than ever? Sky-high housing costs, student debt, and the return of loan payments all play a role, but so do fear, guilt, and a desire to shield kids from failure. We'll explore the emotional conflict between partners who disagree on rules, the hidden cost of Parent PLUS loans, and why “support without structure is just deferred conflict.” Then, we'll lay out practical tools for parents: aligning as a couple, having honest conversations with adult kids, and creating a phased transition plan that respects both love and limits. If you've ever wondered where generosity ends and enabling begins, this is an episode you won't want to miss.

Do you find yourself parenting at the expense of your own peace? If you're having a tough time navigating the highs and lows of parenting adult children, then this episode of the podcast is just the one for you.  This episode is also for you if you're parenting young children, because that's where [...]
