Beat the Blues When the Kids Leave the Nest
April 16th, 2008 by admin
When a child leaves home for the first time it can’t be a very sad experience for both parties. It is an adjustment for all involved and for some it can be devastating. For children it means independence, responsibility and new experiences. For parents it can be a time to focus on their career, their social life or picking up a new hobby or sport. Parents need to take advantage of this time and take more time for themselves. This isn’t the end of being a parent and you may even become closer with your child once they leave the house.
