Tangerine,
I'm looking at it from the other side. I'd like to be able to live on my own for awhile, doing what I want when I want, not worrying about hurting someones feelings, or wondering where they are or what they're doing.
I moved from my parents home to military barracks to marriage to kids to divorce but still with kids and have been struggling with grown kids. My son, 29 yrs old, doesn't live w/me, but struggles with drug addiction. My daughter, 26 yrs old, lives w/me and is an emotional hand full. When is it my turn to be me???
There are two sides to every story, huh? Good luck - queentree and Chino had some great thoughts.
