Getting Back in Touch!

I have been in absentia for a couple of months, with various family activities which are typical for many of us in these years: needs of aging parents, planning a great wedding weekend for our daughter and now son-in-law, and spending a week of vacation with three or four generations of extended family. I'm happy to find that coming out of the other end of all of that, I am feeling extra good energy for connecting and writing about the surprises, challenges and joys of parenting our 20-something kids.

For starters, here's an opportunity to participate in a survey and interview for Dr. Jeffrey Arnett, a professor at Clark University who is working on a book for parents of "emerging adults".  He has authored several books, including Emerging Adulthood, which I have recommended in an earlier blog.  His insights and intelligent, new ways of understanding our sons and daughters are comprehensive, validating, and helpful.  

Take a look at the survey, and maybe you'll be included in his book!
