## Resource

Summer is somehow half over, one of our daughters is moving away to university in six weeks...why does it feel like we’re already grieving a life that hasn’t even changed yet? What is this weird in-between stage of parenting where your kids are still home… but not really?? We’re packing for residence, cleaning out bedrooms, pretending we’re not emotional, and trying to convince ourselves that FaceTime means they’re not actually gone. If you’re sending a kid to university, wondering whether you’re supposed to be crying, or just trying to survive the emotional whiplash of parenting older teens, this one is for you. Hosted on Acast.
