[quote=Anonymous]When my kids were small I dreamed of the time they'd be grown and independent. I fantasized that once they were out of the house DH and I would be carefree. I thought maybe it would be like before we had kids -- where they only things we worried about was ourselves. But I was clearly wrong. Kids are in their late teens/ealy 20s now and I still worry about them. I'm not a helicopter parent so I mostly worry silently. But I worry all the same -- about their romantic relationships, their job prospect, their grades, and whether they are leading happy, healthy lives. The worst part it standing by and being mostly an observer or supporter from the sidelines. It's tough -- much tougher than I thought it would be! Older and wiser parents, do you deal with this kind of worry? Does it ever get better? [sigh][/quote]
