When Your Kids Leave Home!

This can be a very defining moment in your life and in the life of your children.

Will your kids feel they just got a “get out of jail free card?” Or, will they approach this journey into adulthood with a good relationship with you?

There are three basic issues:

MICROMANAGEMENT-If you have raised them in a strict manner with little freedom allowed, they probably resent it and want to “bust loose” once they’re gone.

LEADER/FOLLOWER-If your kids have strong leadership traits, they will be less vulnerable to those who would lead them astray.

SELF CONFIDENCE-Self confident people are more inclined to make their own decisions rather than submit to the bad behavior of others.

Lastly, tell them you love them and you are always here for them!

If not today, when?
