Loving that Midlife

When Your Adult Child Makes a Decision You Don’t Agree With


Listen Later

When your adult child makes a decision you don’t agree with, it can bring up a very specific kind of tension.

You’re not in charge anymore… but you still care deeply.

In this episode, we’re talking about what it looks like to navigate those moments—when your adult child chooses something you wouldn’t choose, and every part of you wants to step in, say something, or steer the outcome.

You’ll hear:

  •  Why this stage of parenting feels so emotionally challenging 
  •  What’s really happening when you feel the urge to correct or control 
  •  How to stay connected to your adult child without agreeing with their decisions 

We’ll also talk about the added layer for Christian moms—how to trust that you’ve raised your children in truth, without feeling responsible to correct or convict them in every conversation.

This episode is honest, practical, and rooted in real-life moments—including a story that might just change the way you see these interactions.

If you’ve ever thought,
 “I wouldn’t choose that…”
 but didn’t know what to do next—

This episode is for you.
