๐Ÿ”นAs a parent, itโ€™s normal to feel a sense of grief as your child grows up. Gone are the days when they depended on you and soon, theyโ€™ll be out on her own.โฃโฃ
โฃโฃ
๐Ÿ”นEven as adults, we have to make sure we deal with our emotions in a healthy way. Donโ€™t allow your feelings or emotions to hold your child back. They should not feel guilty for growing and moving forward in life.โฃโฃ
โฃโฃ
๐Ÿ”นKeep in mind that you and your teen donโ€™t have to agree on everything. Let them become their own person and establish themself as an individual, as long as they do it in a safe way.โฃโฃ
โฃโฃ
๐Ÿ”นYouโ€™ve done your part to raise them into the human being they are, and at some point, once they are adults themselves, it will be time to take a step back and let them experience all that youโ€™ve done your best to prepare them for.โฃโฃ
