In this insightful piece, Glenn Lutjen— a licensed marriage and family therapist with over 30 years on the Focus on the Family counseling team—addresses the growing epidemic of adult children distancing themselves or cutting off contact from their parents. With studies indicating that more than a quarter of young adults experience some form of estrangement, Lutjen offers compassionate guidance to help parents navigate the emotional pain, confusion, and relational challenges that arise when their children shut them out. Drawing on decades of clinical experience, he provides practical tools for maintaining hope, fostering healthy communication, and pursuing healing even in the midst of broken family connections.
