What's been challenging has been the boundary thing: setting those boundaries and being firm with them and not allowing the manipulation to occur, because my son can be very manipulative and charming and he looks at me with those eyes, and I'm sure many parents can relate to this, and I just sometimes give in.
Ever felt trapped by your child's addiction, unsure of how to set boundaries without feeling guilty? This episode of 'Hopestream' with Brenda Zane offers a heartfelt coaching session with Cheryl, a mom navigating these very challenges. Cheryl's son is in a residential treatment program, and she's struggling with his manipulative behavior and her own 'parenting paralysis'. Brenda, drawing from her extensive experience as a CRAFT Parent Coach and her personal journey, provides Cheryl with practical advice and emotional support.
Through their candid conversation, you'll discover how revisiting past strategies can sometimes lead to new solutions. Cheryl's 'lightbulb moment' and the transformative power of community support are highlights you won't want to miss. Tune in to learn how to manage guilt, hold firm boundaries, and find hope in the midst of chaos.
