Support your young adult when they (or you) are stepping into new roles.

What is your intent and what’s the outcome you want to have for your kid when it comes to transitioning into new roles? How do you communicate about it? And your kid could ask the same question for themselves. There are challenging aspects within a relationship when these types of conversations need to happen, but they can be used as a healthy resource for your kid and their growth. 

Ask questions and get feedback for the purpose of moving up and forward... this is always a healthy place to go. You can have gates that lead to new roles within your relationships, just know when to open them, when to keep them closed, and communicate about it. 

Both sides are responsible for boundaries in a relationship. There are going to be difficulties identifying roles, creating healthy boundaries, and finding yourself in a new relationship, but here are things you can do to help and work through the situation.
