In this breakthrough book, Carl Pickhardt exposes a hidden period of development that's causing college and post high school age kids to fail on their own. His new approach to understanding
young adulthood proposes that, as a society, we expect 18- to 24-year-olds to have reached adulthood, when in reality they have reached the final stage of adolescence, called "trial
independence." Boomerang Kids shows parents how to understand this little-discussed period in their child's life and the helpful role they can play during this time to ensure their
child's success.
