FamilyLife Blended® con Ron L. Deal

Ron, because my children are adults, I thought me dating wouldn’t be a problem. Boy was I wrong.

I’ve heard that a lot, especially from widows. Adult kids care quite a bit about what’s happening to their parent and how it’s going to change the family. So, when a parent makes it their agenda to get their adult child to accept their dating partner sometimes it backfires. Instead offer soft invitations, not demanding ones. It's more respectful and lets them engage when they are ready. Hey, adding someone to the family portrait at any age changes a lot. Be sure to step together.
