[quote=Anonymous]I agree Op, let her know you want to chat weekly so you can each share more during your calls. She can text if it’s an emergency, but you are looking forward to starting a new routine as an empty nester— reading, jogging, yoga, walk with a neighbor after dinner, whatever. Make it a challenge for you both. I’m surprised more people are not in favor of gently cutting the cord. It’s ok to nudge the baby bird out of the nest. Shes hardly a baby anymore! Did she ever do summer camp? At my dds’ camps there were no calls home at all for 2-3 weeks (the duration). It helped facilitate proper bonding among the campers, and the directors knew the homesick kids would complain to their parents to pick them up, instead of making the necessary adjustments to enjoy camp.
