[quote=Anonymous]Empty nester now - I dreaded the first one leaving and choked up all summer thinking about it, but the actual drop off was fine - he was SO excited it was infectious. Second one - 4 years later - same thing. I missed them, but they were both thriving so that set the tone. Try to concentrate on the positive - they are off on an adventure you prepared them for! When they are in college, you will still see them/hear from them pretty regularly. And, there are some positives of the empty nest for sure - whether single parent or partnered - less responsibilities, less teenage drama, more free time - recommend you take back up hobbies you may have given up or try new ones, eat whatever you want for dinner, watch whatever you want on tv, etc. [/quote]
