[quote=Anonymous]I was one of these kids. I can almost guarantee she will be wondering if it is her job to push back and insist, to prove her love by staying. It crosses your mind, even if you don't say it. It may help to address this directly, e.g., by saying something like, "There are a lot of ways to love and support someone. If you ever wonder if you aren't helping, remember that your father (or whomever) is thinking about you carrying forward your life into the future. Some people help by staying home. Some people help by carrying on and sending love back. Right now your dad and I think this is the best way to do it. Why don't we talk about it as we go and see how it feels for you? I love you."[/quote]
