<p>I would like to know the answer to this question.</p>
<p>happy on the outside, sad on the inside</p>
<p>its more of a bittersweet thing than anything. they are sad that you are moving on but proud of the product they made.</p>
<p>Depends on the relationship between the parents/children. I agree with tracemhunter though–it could be both, hence bittersweet.</p>
<p>I do know of some parents who were totally ecstatic over their children moving out of the house (going to college).</p>
<p>On the other hand, I know of a greater number of parents who were rather sad, yet proud at the same time.</p>
<p>Depends on whether or not they love you.</p>
<p>My mom will be crying…I already feel it…</p>
<p>Well considering the fact that I get beat every night, I think they will be happy for the fact that they get to save so much energy every day.</p>
<p>har har.</p>
<p>get beaten???</p>
<p>grammar nazi???</p>
<p>No…I was asking about your post…I am quite compassionate when it comes to grammar.</p>
<p>well it’s obvious you’re not quite compassionate when it comes to detecting sarcasm</p>
<p>I am rather generous with sarcasm…your point is…</p>
<p>prism said it perfectly.</p>
<p>right now, there are a lot of . . “rough bumps” within the family. but i know if someone died, ran away, left for good, there’d be a considerate amt of sadness, even if it appears … not so much.</p>
<p>My mom will be sad, and my dad will pretend to be. I will reciprocate both sentiments.</p>
<p>reciprocate both ?? what … HELL NO. I CANT WAIT TO FREAKING LEAVE FOR GOOD … i’m never coming back if I don’t have to. if you guys had my parents, you’d understand why. everyone around here pities the poor soul of mine.</p>
<p>Well, what I mean is I will miss my mom.</p>
<p>yeah well. . . cant really say the same thing now.</p>
