[quote=Anonymous]Honestly, I feel like I had been led to believe that I would drop them off at college and then miraculously morph into an empty nester when in reality our youngest is now 25 and it finally feels like we are empty nesters. Yeah, we had the COVID thing so people came home even after we moved them into dorms and jobs so there is that -- but I have recently been taking stock of things and honestly between aging parents and moving people into nursing homes and kids enduring stretches of unemployment, and switching jobs and careers and going back to grad school and breaking up with boyfriends and our being there and supportive for all of that, it feels like the lull only really hit about a year or so ago Prior to that, it all felt pretty hectic and stressful.
