Parenting Adult Kids

Pin on Photography ~ Family Portraits

It’s a different ballgame when they emerge into adulthood.

Different for them and different for us, their parents.

Of course each son or daughter takes on the mantle of adulthood in their own time.

Adult kids want to make their own decisions like we did.

They sometimes seek our advice and other times not so much.

Regardless, it is our job to be supportive and not to cast rain water on their sunny day!

If it ends up that their decision doesn’t work out, we are there to help pick up the pieces.

We must remember that parenthood is a lifelong endeavor.

When we (and GOD) bring a child into this world, we owe that child unconditional love.

As our adult children raise their own children, they experience many uncertainties.

The one certainty they have every right to expect is OUR LOVE!

If not today, when?
