Stop Raising Adult-Children: Break the Cycle of Blame and Take Your Life Back

De: Haron Marlee

This book represents the next chapter in self-help for parents: honest, compassionate, and built for the challenges of today’s families.

Have your grown kids refused to grow up?
Do they still call themselves your child instead of an adult?
Do they expect you to pay their bills, pick up the check, or fix every crisis — while shaming you for not being the “perfect parent”?

If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. And you’re not crazy. You’ve been tricked.

In this bold, no-nonsense book, licensed clinical therapist, Haron Marlee calls out the cultural hoax that turned parents into servants, scapegoats, and sponsors — while enabling generations of “adult-children” to gaslight the very people who raised them.

With honesty, compassion, and humor, this book will help you:

• Recognize the patterns of manipulation, blame, and guilt-tripping that keep you stuck.

• Understand how trauma cycles created this imbalance — and how to break free from it.

• Learn to set boundaries without estrangement (yes, it’s possible).

• Discover the difference between love and trauma bonding — and why healthy parents don’t need to fix every “bump in the night.”

• Reclaim your identity and your life with practical tools: Boundaries in Action scripts, Parent Reflections, the Reciprocity Clause, and a 30-Day Parent Reset Plan.

It’s time to stop raising adult-children.
It’s time to break the cycle of blame.
It’s time to take your life back.

Regain of emotional health from adult child abuse

My wife and I are in our late 60s. We have a 40-ager daughter who seems to have very deep layers of emotional issues that started from her teenage years. She lies, manipulates, punishes by withholding time with grandchildren, always wants more money, interrogates us regarding our affairs, speaks to us like she knows everything about everything. She has never been on her own, held down a long-term job or career (even though she has two college degrees), or created anything such as a successful business. We have done all those successful things. Interesting. Our other daughter loves us and treats us like people with goals, dreams, and feelings, and we reciprocate like grown-up friends--beautiful. This book helped us regain our self-esteem and recognize what has been going on. We are now setting boundaries. It feels great. There was not one single wasted line in this book. If knowledge is power and the right knowledge for the right situation can help you be mentally and emotionally healthy, then this book is a must read. When I told my wife about it, she said, "Could you please get me a copy." I am going to do that as soon as I type the last word of this. Thank you, author Haron Marlee.
