[quote=Anonymous]I try to look at things in a bigger picture. I'd rather my kid deal with their first break up when they live at home and I can help them through it. And I can't help them through it if I'm an emotional wreck and they feel like they can't come to me. I could never go to my mom for this reason and I really hated it. At 40, I still dislike that I can't go to my mom for things. When I had a cancer scare, I never told her because I knew she would be way too emotional about it and cause me more stress. So I vent to my girlfriends about my feelings and they vent to me, but otherwise to the kids I just seem like a strong support system. Not like I'm going to become overly emotional if they come to me crying and put something else on their plate to deal with. [/quote]
