[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Be careful what you wish for! I miss my daughter terribly when she goes back to school (mom of a rising junior).[/quote] Missing someone you love and enjoy the company of is normal but should not be avoided when they are launching into their adult lives. The relationship simply changes. It's not a situation where you should "be careful what you wish for" because it might actually happen, it's a situation where you should be proud of your parenting skills, proud of your child, and proud of yourself for being stable and grounded enough to enjoy a new phase of your own life while they lean into theirs.[/quote]
