You have to let go. At some point they go on to be their own selves. We encouraged ours to leave the somewhat isolated, conservative community of west michigan where kids stayed together from pre-school through college, and go find out that there were other types of people in the world. They took it and ran with it. I'm proud, but i miss them! Thank god for skype.
