In this episode of Life in Motion, hosts Jamie and Heather catch up on the major milestones and events that have occurred in their lives over the past six months. They reflect on the challenges and joys of parenting adult children and their ins and outs for 2024.
As children transition into adulthood, our roles as parents evolve from being the primary decision-makers to becoming mentors, advisors, and sources of support. It’s a delicate balance of offering guidance while respecting their autonomy and independence.
Sometimes, boundaries have to be set. This includes respecting their privacy, allowing them to make their own mistakes and learn from them, and offering support. It can be tempting to continue exerting the same level of influence and authority as we did when they were younger, but doing so can hinder their growth.
Instead, we must learn to trust in the values and principles we’ve instilled in them, knowing that they have the foundation to make their own decisions.
