Shadow Parents

Sometimes parents need to be in the shadows.
Standing back and letting my children make their own decisions is what I have to do. Its not easy. My nature is to organize, delegate and get everyone moving. My goal is to have independent, happy children who put their own partners first just as my partner and I do for each other. I need to give them space to organize and think for themselves. I will be there if they need me. Watching them take chances, reach for goals and grow their self confidence is a priceless gift.
