HEALTHY FAMILY CONNECTIONS

Get Off This Enablement Train!

What do you do when your husband is letting his very disturbed adult son take him and his business downhill? This week, I address concerns from a woman who is facing some pretty tough challenges with her husband, their small business, and her adult stepson. Her husband has been enabling his adult son since he was a teenager. His son has some severe issues and his deteriorating condition and behavior are destroying the business. Dad has turned to alcohol to handle the stress, which, of course, is not a healthy coping mechanism. His wife loves him but doesn't want to tolerate the situation. She wants to know if there is anything she can do to turn things around. So, what can this family, who is on an enablement train, do to create desperately need change? Listen in to learn: • Standards for successfully mixing family and business • How to set limits and address critical issues in a failing marriage • How to ask for the help you need in therapy ...and more!
