[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The title of this thread is how I feel it is to be a parent of a college student and young adult. I did not anticipate how much I worry about them. Even if not needed. They are generally doing just fine. Normal struggles but nothing terrible. But I am noticing my emotional and mental bandwidth still being taken up a great deal by them and how they are doing. Does this get better? I really feel for my parents now and realized what a good job they did rarely letting on if they felt the same way when I was this age. Especially my mom. [/quote] Your dilemma is totally understandable but you need to train yourself to relax and let go. Most things you worry about are never going to happen, neither would everything you want for or from them is going to happen. Just wish for the best and accept their decisions for themselves. They'll succeed and they'll fail, they'll laugh and they'll cry, that's life.[/quote]
