From an expert in adolescent psychology comes a groundbreaking, timely, and necessary guide for parents of the 2.2 million young adults in America who are struggling to find their way in the world.
In Dr. Mark McConville's decades of experience as a family clinical psychologist, perhaps no problem has been more fraught than that of young adults who fail to successfully transition from adolescence into adulthood. 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 one in four Americans aged twenty-five to thirty-four neither work nor attend school, and it's a problem that spans all socioeconomic and geographic boundaries.McConville 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 Failure to Launch, 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.

Zusammenfassung
BIG-NAME SUPPORT FROM LUMINARIES IN THE FIELD AND EARLY MEDIA PRAISE: Before its hardcover release, Failure to Launch and Mark McConville have received standout praise from influential and bestselling writers, including Julie Lythcott-Haims, Lori Gottlieb, Lisa Damour, and Michele Borba, among others. These great early blurbs have been coupled with strong early buzz, including glowing trade reviews and coverage in People.
HISTORICALLY STRONG BACKLIST CATEGORY: Parents are consistently desperate to raise independent kids, and this topic lends itself nicely to evergreen paperback sales, as we've seen with recent bestsellers in this category like The Gift of Failure (for parents of tweens-over 79k sold life-to-date across all formats) and How to Raise an Adult (for parents of teens and college-aged kids-more than 150k sold life-to-date across all formats).
SERVES A HUGE-AND DESPERATE-AUDIENCE: In fact, studies show that 1 in 4 Americans aged twenty-five to thirty-four are "idle"; that is, they neither work nor attend school. That amounts to about 2.2 million young people who have "failed to launch," and there exists no manual for parenting these twentysomethings.
BY THE EXPERT WHO FIRST IDENTIFIED "FAILURE TO LAUNCH" SYNDROME: Dr. Mark McConville is one of the few clinicians who specializes in "boomerang families," a focus he honed over the past thirty years among the affluent, frustrated clients he works with. His New York Times article on the topic last year received a big response.
SOUGHT-AFTER THOUGHT LEADER ON THIS TOPIC: With senior faculty status at one of the world's most renowned post graduate psychotherapy training institutes, the Gestalt Institute of Cleveland, McConville is the right voice to take this message to a national audience. His reputation as a leader in this field yields regular invitations to speak and teach internationally.
