My in-laws are extremely emotionally immature, and I have had a lot of concerns on how to deal with them concerning our child and their entitlement/boundary crossing on us as parents. I found this video extremely helpful and wanted to pass it on to anyone else who might need it. I have half a mind to send it to my MIL. It’s by the author of Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents: https://www.consciouslife.com/conferences/tsc-5/sessions/navigating-emotionally-immature-grandparents
I read parts of Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents with my spouse and it was immensely helpful in opening their eyes and uniting us as a couple. It also helped them to understand my concerns. It’s probably one of the best books I’ve read.

I read this book and thought if this doesn’t open my husband’s eyes, there is no hope. Thankfully it did!
I’m gonna have to invest. My husband cannot commit to a healthy mother-son dynamic and it’s about to cost him his family.
