[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You need to seek therapy. You are making it all about you, and not about your soon to be college student, who is probably thrilled to get away from you. [/quote] I see statements like these pop up on various mom posts. If someone is speaking about how they feel, they are indeed speaking about...How they feel, about themselves. These responses are bizarre, like a mean, nasty reflex against women sharing their thoughts.[/quote] Agree. That comment is so awful and not even relevant. OP can be sad for herself while still being happy for her kid. She has a right to her feelings. Whenever this topic comes up, people who express sadness at the empty nest are attacked or accused of having no job or no friends or no hobbies. Someone can have all of those things and still feel sad that their parenting era has ended.[/quote]
