[quote=Anonymous]Lots of good advice on here and some I may repeat -Allow them to be adults and treat them like adults -Be available for consultation by request only-no unsolicited advice unless the situation is extreme -Enjoy each of your children for who they are and have reasonable expectations. -Do not compare your adult children to eachother or try to manipulate one by saying the other does x and y -When you are with them be in the moment. If they ask you for a report on various extended family members or your friend's kids great, but otherwise allow them to have their own relationships with those people and when you are with your adult child just enjoy the time. You don't need to be the guardian of all updates/gate keeper or the family newsletter person unless they want that. [/quote]
