Your child seemingly went from crying over their first birthday smash cake to blowing out 18 candles, flying the coup and perhaps starting a family of their own in the blink of an eye. While it can feel like just yesterday that you were holding their cute, tiny hands as they crossed the street, one mental health expert stresses it’s crucial to understand how to navigate a relationship with an adult child without being overbearing. “Understanding how relationships change as your child becomes an adult is key to maintaining a healthy, supportive connection,” says Joseph Kivett , a psychiatric mental…
