[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not much changed for me in terms of my social circle, hobbies etc.  Now I just have more time to travel with my DH and take care of my health.

I think of it as a small little pause though.  I am sure we will be needed by our children in a different way once they get married and [b]have children[/b].

Once you have grandkids, you have a family with new members and you have a different role to play in it. [/quote]

Your kids may not have kids. Better to form a full and sufficient life on your own, not around their orbit. [/quote]

Of course. No one is waiting for our children/grandchildren to make our lives full.  We have always had a full and sufficient life, have a thriving social circle, favorite causes  and hobbies, family, relatives and travelling.   This was true even when kids were little.  BUT, we do know that if our kids have children, we will prioritize their needs first.   We are financially independent and at a point in our lives that we can help our children.[/quote]
