[QUOTE="jbrain, post: 65653, member: 3450"] Hi, I remember when my easy child son went off to college--he was nearly impossible to live with that summer and I couldn't wait for him to go. Then, after dropping him off I got so depressed from missing him. He didn't call, didn't seem to care about us anymore. I remember reading a book called, "Letting Go" (I think) and it really helped. I learned that what I was feeling was normal and what he was doing was normal! I adjusted to him being gone and although we didn't talk much when we did it was fine. We mostly talked about sports since that was his big interest and just kept things light. I was really surprised at myself for feeling so bad when he left. Now he is 23 and living at home while he gets a new business he is starting off the ground--I thought he was gone forever when he was 18! Jane [/QUOTE]
