[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do you deal with going from seeing your child every single day to a handful of times a year? This is gonna hurt.[/quote] Easy. I was pretty glad when DS went to college. I might not be the most emotional person, but honestly I found it bit harder when he came home for winter break and then left. I actually welcomed a break from cooking and constant teen drama! DS is a great kid/young adult now and college has helped him deal with his anxiety, he is becoming popular kid due to his sport, he is trying hard in his classes. Why should I hurt? It is a normal step in life, I am happy for my kid to become independent and figure it on his own. My mom has always been that "I live for my kids and their kids...." mom, and that kind of emotional dependence isn't healthy, she will never see it as a burden, you know, she is all about us, but it is a burden in every single way, most emotionally.[/quote]
