[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The article was a little corny and over the top/dramatic, but the author doesn’t seem like a bad person or a bad mom to me? She’s involved and supportive. What am I not getting here?[/quote] This was my takeaway too, although I'm also firmly in the camp of "emotions are not inherently bad or worthy of judgment." I saw this as a woman expressing her sadness over realizing that her son moved on to the next phase of his life and being a bit taken aback that she was asking for a table for 3 instead of 4. I'm a mom to a young child and I can imagine having that same sad pang when my kid eventually leaves the house. It doesn't mean that I'm going to show up at his dorm at night playing In Your Eyes on a boombox outside his window.[/quote] :lol: :lol: Thank you for this imagery, PP! I’m feeling low today and that made me snort-laugh. -NP[/quote]
