DEAR BAYLOR AND PRESLEE,
I promise you I will love you and allow you to make decisions and grow even throughout your adult life. All mothers worry. Worry doesn't equate to love, denying wings,and infringing... I want someone YOU CARE FOR to feel nothing short of care, nonlabeling, unconditional love, and compassion. You need to grow and take responsibility for your part as it always takes two to tango. Communication is king. Always has, always will.
We are students for life, but I'm so glad I understand and have experience in what a relationship takes and what reality is. I will never be the following...I as your mother going through life have learned from others who make this dangerous mistake.
Hovering Helicopter Mom syndrome:
Resist the temptation to step in and take over trying to be involved in every detail. Have your son/daughter go ahead and tackle some of the issues that are outside his comfort zone. You’re not going to be able to be immersed in every detail of the ADULT child’s life...there comes a time a mother takes her place..in love..not a castostophicizing view on life.
I love you Bay and Pres so dearly.
Your Mother
