Maybe you're divorced and you and your ex are fighting over how much this is all going to cost. Or maybe your spouse isn't Jewish and the whole question of religious meaning is coming up all over again. Or you're worrying about your relatives' disapproval of the type of party you're planning. You are sandwiched between the needs of your emerging teenager and your aging parents, dealing with your own issues about being old enough to be the parent of a Bar/Bat Mitzvah, while trying to orchestrate your child's coming-of-age. Family therapist David shows you exactly what you can do to create magic and meaning for the whole family.
