Getting to 30

As Getting to 30 shows, the road to adulthood is longer than we think-and, for parents, bumpier. It explains what's really happening to your 18- to 29-year-old, including the story behind your child's moods. The phenomenon of the boomerang child-and why it's actually a good thing, for parents and kids. The new landscape of 20-something romance. And it gives all the tools parents need to deal with the challenges, from six ways to listen more than you talk, to knowing when to open (and close) the Bank of Mom and Dad while saving for retirement, to figuring out the protocol for social media.
