In fact, we&#8217;ve given them &#8220;the best&#8221; and that&#8217;s now part of the problem. Now, as the metaphoric phrase goes, &#8220;Houston, we&#8217;ve got a problem&#8221;, for what we have here is a failure to launch. And so goes our young person&#8217;s life &#8212; wandering aimlessly between home, college, work, and struggling with relationships and possible drug, internet, or sexual problems (or maybe all three!). What we need here is &#8220;a plan&#8221; that doesn&#8217;t depend on one person&#8217;s opinion but a thorough assessment and recommendation from a qualified practitioner, licensed in the area of psychological testing and placement of young adults. Dr Burdick has &#8220;put into motion&#8221; hundreds of such &#8220;plans&#8221; that have brought about successful &#8220;launches&#8221; to bring a young adult back to &#8220;buying in&#8221; to their life and making something successful of it, to make themselves (and those around the young adult) &#8220;proud&#8221;. At the end of the day, will the young person listen to their parents? No. But, Dr Burdick has a way to help align the orbits of clients and families to help bring the purpose back into the situation, and move families forward. Do you think this is possible without a &#8220;thorough assessment&#8221;? No, it&#8217;s not. Is it possible to &#8220;launch&#8221; young adults with such an assessment and a strategic plan? Yes, it is. We use a &#8220;parachute approach.&#8221; Don&#8217;t wait. Call to make an appointment. We can make &#8220;the launch&#8221; happen! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As parents, we want &#8220;the best&#8221; for our young daughter or son, don&#8217;t we?
