 This is a not to be missed episode!

We talk to Dr. Gene Beresin, Executive director of The Clay Center for Young Healthy Minds at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH), a full professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School, and senior educator in child and adolescent psychiatry at MGH

His 40-years of experience working with youth and young adults has given him an enormous breath of knowledge. And, in addition to his professional life, he's learned quite a bit about building healthy relationships with adult children, since he is a father of four with nine grandkids! He tells us that almost all of them moved home after college or between college and grad school. He says that they all have kids -- making family relationships complex, but incredibly rich and rewarding. You will have to listen for more! A sampling of the topics:

• Work-life balance.
• Boomerang Kids (a listener question).
• Which generation is the loneliest and most entitled? 
• AI, robots -- our adult kids and the future.
• Racism.
• How socioeconomic status plays into relationships with adult children.
• Our expectations and impulse control.
• Gap years - and more.

Huge thank you to Connie Gorant Fisher, our audio engineer.
