[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Naw, I am with you. Never understood the puddles of tears every time the children reach a milestone. They are supposed to this. It’s a celebration, not some bittersweet thing. But I am also not some overly sentimental person in general. So… I mean, I will miss them. But they’ve been basically independent for three years already and these are just the next steps to full independence. Meanwhile, I am rediscovering myself and my spouse and we are embracing the empty nest life with gusto. [/quote] +1 Ultimate goal is to raise your kids so they become functioning adults. Heading to college is a part of that process. While I miss them, I'm thrilled for the next stage of their life. I don't want a 25yo living in my basement with no guidance in life. [/quote]
