Over two episodes, 108 and 109, Tina touches on six obstacles that challenge parents trying to reconnect with their estranged adult children: Confusion, comparison, defensiveness, paralysis, emotional reasoning, and fear. Part 1 (Episode 108) addressed the first three and Part 2 (this episode) the second three. Over and over, these six internal stumbling blocks keep parents from making progress. Tina explains the difficulties and what you can do to get past them. While there may be external obstacles between you and your estranged adult child, start where you have the most power; dismantle internal obstacles first. A self that is whole has more power to overcome challenges than one in pieces.
