You’ve raised an independent young man who is carving his own path. You should be proud of yourself and him! I have two daughters who made similar decisions, and while it broke my heart for them not to be around, it was a part of letting go and letting them ease into adulthood and making choices and handling consequences. We call it “adulting” around here! He is going to make mistakes and sometimes regrettable decisions, and you’ll be there for him. Rest assured, there will still be times that he will want to come home and be with his family, it’s just going to have to be on his terms now! Hope you can take solace in the fact that it’s a part of growing up, and he’s on the right track!
