The Douglas Coleman Show VE with Dr Anthony Rostain

You’re Not Done Yet: Parenting Young Adults in an Age of Uncertainty adolescent and young adult mental health experts B. Janet Hibbs, M.F.T., Ph.D. and Anthony Rostain, M.D., M.A. fill this guidance gap by providing a clear-eyed, optimistic guide for parents with adult children who need help navigating the many challenges to launching an independent life-and who may be pleasantly surprised or mildly alarmed at this unexpected extension of parenting.
The five markers of adulthood-completing education, obtaining a job and settling into a career, living independently, finding a partner, and becoming a parent-were defined by sociologists in the 1950s. Despite social and economic conditions changing drastically between then and now, twentysomethings are still judged on their success (or failure) in checking these off by the time they reach their 30s. Hibbs and Rostain argue these markers are long past their expiration date. They explain the cultural shifts and unprecedented societal forces that parents and young adults face today in order to help them embrace a new normal.
Anthony Rostain, M.D., M.A., is a nationally-recognized expert in child and adolescent psychiatry, Chair and Chief of Psychiatry and Behavioral Health at Cooper University Health Care, and Professor of Psychiatry and Pediatrics at Cooper University Medical School of Rowan University. He’s the co-author of The Stressed Years of Their Lives with B. Janet Hibbs, M.F.T., Ph.D. and has co-authored two books on adults with ADHD.
