Julie Lythcott-Haims Discusses Parenting of Older Teens & Young Adults During Pandemic (PANDEMIC SPECIAL EPISODE)
Thank you for joining me today for another pandemic special episode. I'm doing a series of shorter episodes on parenting and grief and related topics during this time of global pandemic. Big thanks to Julie Lythcott-Haims for hopping on a call with me yesterday to record this discussion about some of the issues that are coming up right now when parenting older teens and young adults. Julie is the New York Times bestselling author of How to Raise an Adult, and she has an 18-year-old and a 20-year-old herself, so I knew she'd be just the right person to talk with on this topic.
This discussion was recorded on March 24, 2020.
