Parenting doesn’t end when your child becomes an adult—but it does change. In this episode of Focus on the Family with Jim Daly, Dr. Kathy Koch shares practical and biblical wisdom for parents who want a healthier relationship with their adult children. She explains how to move from control to influence, release your child to God, communicate with more grace, and rebuild connection when distance or conflict has grown.

In this video, you’ll learn:
🔹 Why parents must shift from “parenting” to guiding, coaching, and influencing adult children
🔹 How to release your adult child to God without giving up on the relationship
🔹 Why “I statements” can open doors that “you statements” often close
🔹 How to handle home visits, holidays, in-laws, and boomerang kids with wisdom
🔹 What to do when an adult child is distant, struggling, or making painful choices

No matter where your relationship stands today, there is still hope for peace, healing, and healthier conversations.
