Creating Stability: A New Guide for Parents of Kids in Treatment

It does feel very empowering to find some words or some you know, some themes or context or something that you can look at and say: oh, this is actually what's playing out right in front of me and I'm not helpless to just sort of like get tossed around in the hurricane of all of the emotion and the chaos.
Imagine having a roadmap when you're lost in the maze of parenting a child in treatment. In this episode of 'Hopestream', Brenda Zane chats with Hilary Moses and Jen Murphy from Solutions Parenting Support about their new book, 'Writing H.O.M.E.: Strategies for Making Home a SUCCESS, During and After Treatment'. With 40 years of combined experience, Hilary and Jen have seen it all and are here to share their wisdom.
Parenting a child through treatment often feels like you're walking on uncharted ground. But what if you could predict some of the challenges ahead? Hilary and Jen have identified patterns in thousands of family experiences, offering parents a way to prepare and respond more effectively. Their book isn't just a guide; it's a model for personal growth during tough times.
In this conversation, they dive into the behavior patterns of kids in recovery and provide a simple model to handle unexpected situations. They also discuss the importance of setting boundaries, especially for kids over 18, and how self-assessment questions can help parents navigate these turbulent waters. Hilary sums it up perfectly when she says, 'It feels empowering to recognize the themes playing out and realize you're not helpless in the chaos'.
If you're a parent dealing with your child's treatment journey, this episode offers practical advice and a sense of direction. Tune in for insights that could make your path a little clearer.
