[quote=Anonymous]What are some things you are doing to encourage your fledgling to gain more independence so that they are truly ready to “leave the nest” in a few short years ? For me: I make my kids in charge of their schedules. When they ask me: mom, when is this or that event? I respond by saying, I don’t know. You need to look it up! You’re in charge of your activities, not me. Or today, when the manager of my daughters sports team asked me what size uniform did she fit into, I said: I don’t know. You’re going to have to ask her. At this age, she knows more about that than I do. [/quote]
