[quote=Anonymous]My DD who’ll be 18 at the end of this month and is my youngest of 5 and only daughter left for college a few weeks ago and it’s been tough. My oldest leaving was very hard for me but as each child left it got easier and so I thought I’d be ready to be an empty nester but that isn’t the case. I’m extremely sad that my days of raising children and parenting are over. I’m incredibly grateful to see the amazing young adults they’ve become and I am very excited for what the future has in store for each one of them but I can’t help but feel sad when I see anything that reminds me of any of them when they were little. I’m missing everything about parenting. I don’t know what to do with myself most days with no kid in the house and feel like my life is in pause. Any tips on making this huge change easier would be extremely helpful.[/quote]
