PEAK: Parents of Estranged Adult Kids

by Fe Anam Avis

This book is written to serve as a resource for parents with estranged adult kids. If you are an estranged parent, little more needs to be said about the need for this book. You have likely been wandering about in a silent wilderness with little to comfort or guide you. You may have talked with friends or consulted with a physician, clergy person, or even a professional therapist and found little help. There are few situations more agonizing in life than to find that your adult child has cut off communication with you and possibly you from your grandchildren. People who have experienced the loss of a friend in war, family members to car accidents or physical violence, or the loss of all their material possessions will testify that the pain from all these losses pales in comparison to that of the estrangement from children and grandchildren. Without assigning blame or eliciting shame, this book offers a path of acceptance and healing for those seeking to move forward as loving, compassionate people who still have something to give the world in spite of this greatest of losses.

It’s a book many of us wish we didn’t have to read. I don’t agree with everything in this book but it moves you forward. My husband led a class on this book and saw lives changed.
