Why are more people cutting off contact with their parents—and what can families do to prevent it? Shane Hewitt speaks with social worker Gary Direnfeld about the rising trend of “no contact” relationships and the difficult dynamics behind them. Drawing on his experience at http://yoursocialworker.com , Gary shares practical tools for defusing conflict, repairing strained family ties, and taking specific actions that can ease tension before it escalates. This conversation is about understanding, empathy, and finding healthier ways to connect.
