[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree - it feels like ANOTHER fake post.  Anyone else feel most of posts recently are fake? They do a masterful job because most people respond as if they’re legitimate posts.

This isn't a fake post. As other parents have noted, they feel similarly to me in that they are proud of this milestone. It's pretty simple. Not being judgemental of others, just celebrating something that was years in the making and taking a breath before the next phase.

Also, someone said I sounded smug comparing parenting style to my sibling and siblings in law. I don't know, am feeling a little validated. But that isn't the main point.

Parenting teens through HS and into collefe is traumatic. As someone mentioned, my experiences aren't that unusual, and I know that. We've also had parental friends whose kids home schooled due to extreme anxiety, suicide attempts from a teen whose mom had died from breast cancer. OK, thanks posters you win! Everything sucks, lol. We can stay in the muck together.[/quote]
