These kids--technically adults--just can't get it together: They can't hold a job, they struggle to develop meaningful relationships, and they often end up back in their parents' spare bedroom or on the couch. In fact, studies show that 1 in 4 Americans aged 25 to 34 neither work nor attend school, and it's a problem that spans all socioeconomic and geographic boundaries.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMcConville investigates the root causes of this problem: Why are modern kids \"failing to launch\" in ever-increasing numbers? The key, McConville has found, is that they are struggling with three critical skills that are necessary to make the transition from childhood to adulthood--finding a sense of purpose, developing administrative responsibility, and cultivating interdependence. In \u003ci\u003eFailure to Launch\u003c\/i\u003e, McConville breaks these down into achievable, accessible goals and offers a practical guide for the whole family, to help parents instill those skills in their young adults--and to get their kids into the real world, ready to start their lives.","brand":"Putnam Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Bargain","offer_id":42995949535312,"sku":"9780525542186B","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookoutlet.com\/fr\/products\/failure-to-launch-why-your-twentysomething-hasnt-grown-up-and-what-to-do-about-it","provider":"Book Outlet","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
