Resistance to Growing Up
Friday Feb 28, 2025
Friday Feb 28, 2025
Some children and adolescents bound toward the future, excitedly proclaiming, "I can't wait to grow up!"
Others are a bit more unsure--some of us may resist growing up well into our 20s and beyond. Acts of resistance against adulthood can be big or small, noticeable or subtle. Even those who were excited to grow up in childhood may find that fears begin to dampen their enthusiasm as the reality of adult life sinks in.
Where do these fears come from? What are some of the core beliefs and emotional experiences that can either hamper or promote our growth and development towards healthy adulthood?
All of this in today's episode.
