what??!! I’m not sure it happens that
magically, but we have been loosening the parent
consultant
reins as our 18-year-old man races toward the adult rights of freedom.
Good or bad, he gets to make “his own mistakes.” Unfortunately, it will still be
while he’s on our parent payroll
—which makes it hard to let go. I’m trying to avoid
being “That Parent” that hovers and gets labeled a Helicopter Parent.
Check out our Adulthood Checklist and see if your guys are ready (we only have
two months before moving day—yikes!) Please send us your thoughts, advice and
suggestions—we are all in this together!
Blessings,

p.s. My parenting motivation: “Do not grow
weary in doing what is right, for at the
proper time, you will reap a harvest of
righteousness if you do not give up” –
Galatians 6:9 – Bring on the harvest!!

One of my teachers saw my throwback prom photo at a doctor’s
office and said, “You had hair!” We love the magazine – it’s really well
done!
