I Built My Life Around Them Parenting Successful Teens

    • Barn och familj

The truth of the matter is that, as a Mom, I worked myself out of a job. 
They will always need my love.  And I theirs.  But they don’t need me.  And there is a grief there that is true.  Over the loss of identity.
 
I don’t regret building my life around them.  If I had it to do over again, I wouldn’t change a thing.   But it's time to both acknowledge the impact I've had on my kids and to pick a new focus.
