Parenting When Adult Children Wander video series

Do you have an adult child who has turned away from faith in Christ? 

Perhaps your child has made their position painfully clear by saying something like, Mom and Dad, I respect you for holding to your faith, but I no longer believe that Jesus is real.

Or perhaps nothing’s been said, but your grown child’s attitudes and actions are so far from what you’d expect that you can only conclude that Jesus means little to them.

As distressing as your situation with your child certainly is, you are far from alone. At Focus on the Family Canada, our counselling team frequently hears from parents who are devastated by the choices their adult children are making.

The parents who contact us are often completely bewildered, at a loss to understand what could have led their child to abandon their faith and the biblical values they were taught.

Many parents are plagued by guilt, wondering what they could have done differently in raising their child. And often, parents are exhausted from the stress of watching their child make choices that complicate their child’s future or put them at risk of serious harm.

Whether there’s confusion, guilt or fear in the mix, parents always want to know, What can I do to help my child find their way back to the Lord?

And here’s the good news: you can make a difference. In this free, six-part video series, Focus on the Family Canada counsellor Jennifer Antonsen presents positive steps you can take that will be helpful for both you and your child.

First, you’ll learn how to deal with any overwhelming emotions you may be struggling with. Then you’ll learn how to respond to your son or daughter in ways that help them be open and honest with you, so you still have some influence on their faith journey.
