The Launch Protocol

Word-for-word scripts for talking about rent, debt, jobs, spending, and moving out — without the conversation turning into a fight.

Description:
You already know what you want to say. You've rehearsed it in the shower, in the car, during the walk from the kitchen to the living room. And then the moment arrives, and somehow the conversation goes sideways within the first two minutes.
This isn't a communication problem. It's a structure problem. Money conversations between parents and adult children fail for a handful of repeating reasons — and once you see the pattern, the scripts almost write themselves.
Five complete conversation scripts. Pushback handling for each one. A framework you can adapt the moment your child says something you didn't plan for.

What's Inside:

• The three reasons these conversations blow up — and how to prevent each one
• The four rules that make any script work
• The universal opening line for any difficult money conversation
• Full scripts for: rent and living expenses, the job search, debt, moving out, and spending
• What to say when your child gets defensive, shuts down, or goes silent
• How to recover when a conversation goes sideways anyway
• Two worksheets: Pre-Conversation Plan and After-Conversation Debrief\

A calm voice is louder than a raised one.
