I'd say that depends on the personality of the child. You say whatever it is that you want to say and then let go. I realized that you must trust and support their decision because you most likely cannot change their mind. Our kids will have a tough time, much tougher than we did. Having a 23yo boy just out of the Army and in college I think he has a better chance than most.
The best advice I think I could give would be to be happy, whatever that is.
