And not only kids… it goes to anyone we love... or who loves us…

Certainly longer! and more!

I think, they get to that point, of realising, we are not here, forever, around their 30 birthday...?
At least, my daugther did.....

Sometimes Rosa I think I haven't hugged him, kissed him enough when he was just a little kid and later of course... although those who know me from that period of my life I know would disagree... sometimes I think I have been too tough... too strict, and at the same time loving and forgiving... But I know that I did my utmost devotion, just as I am still doing my best.
I can only hope that my love has been imprinted in his heart and has never been nor will ever be questioned.

It is amazing to seen them
all mature an trying to relate
on a grown up level. One of
my six daughters is getting a
divorce, an suddenly there's
that fragile child again.

It is like a little miracle when you watch them growing and maturing, taking the new roles life puts in front of them, and hopefully recognizing all the good things we have taught them.

I’m glad we’re finally getting some rain & dbl digit temps here in TX!
glad you had a good day w family younger generation these days seem very selfish maybe due to a digital society now?!
I believe most will remember lessons taught advice given & revert back to as they grow & mature!
I still feel my moms last hug 5 yrs ago who passed away 6 months ago last time l saw her so that would be a yes on that!


ExNameForUse replies on 8/21/2022 2:39 am:
They do seem to be selfish, I agree. Why is that so, we could now talk about, there are many reasons, and influences... we are definitely raised in a different environment and with different values compared to what our kids see today everywhere...
I believe I have done decent work while I had the major influence, and now is up to him to adjust and find his own place in his own life... and up to me to accept his decisions and ways

Your son is just finding his wings right now. Knowing that you have taught him well, he'll turn out to be a fine young man


ExNameForUse replies on 8/21/2022 2:33 am:
Thank you, D ...
I know that deep down he is good and very emotional, and sometimes with his harshens I believe he is only defending himself from being over-emotional... like his mum is

Thank you for sharing a very personal moment. I can certainly relate in memories of my own youth and the lure of the world needing to explore my independence. I always knew I was shrouded in the love and support of my parents and maybe that is reason it made it easier to leave the nest. I may not have gone home as much as I should have but I never doubted the love I had. Sometimes when we are young we think that our parents are indestructible and they will be around forever. It is a very hard lesson to be learned when you find out they are not, at the expense of a great loss. Being a mother to a young adult daughter, every conversation ends with I love you. I watch her struggle to find her own identity with so many outside influences. Yet there is one thing that I never want her to doubt; which is my love for her should anything ever happen to me. As she is leaving the nest, I have to embrace the fact that I have raised her well to stand on her own; rest is up to her. She is my legacy. Exnameforuse, you sound like a wonderful mother and you inspire me.

Thank you for stopping by Blossom, and sharing your thoughts with me and us all.
My deepest belief is that our kids should never doubt our love and support and with that knowing their wings will spread wide, courageous, and free for the challenges waiting for them on their way.
It is not always easy though watching their transformation, finding their ways, and as a mum, I can tell one thing for sure - you never stop worrying no matter how old they are...

Ex

This is so true! Being a parent is so difficult! When to let go? How to advise without upsetting them? etc

I think you are a great mother on the sounds of things

Dear Jenny, you are so right with that last question - how to advise without upsetting them... sometimes you literally have to let them crash so they learn... not an easy, yet the most wonderful, fulfilling role in my life

ExNameForUse,

Oh, i recognise that soo much, i have those feelings too....
Talked about it, with my daughter,
Compare our experiences....
acknowledge.

And i know, she knows i love her, did the best i could, showed and said i love her and still tell her, i love her, no matter what!

i value her, as a new own person...

With all my flaws, and that counts for her too...


ExNameForUse replies on 8/22/2022 10:27 am:
It is what I believe Rosa... that there is not too much love you can give to your kids... I said it to my son countless times, and will continue to... adjust to his age, to the situation, to circumstances... yet in an uncertain way will tell him and show him I am always there for him no matter what...
I know how it is when you don't have that in your life, and it is something I will never let my son experience.
With all our flows, his own, my own, I believe it really is about acceptance in the end... that goes both ways...
