I have five kids from 12 to 30. I worry about their future, but I think they are going to be alright. They’ve all turned out very different from anything I expected, but each is them are strong and successful in their own unique ways. My son battled addiction and bipolar, is 4 years sober and just graduated from nursing school suma cum laude. My oldest daughter just transitioned to a new career in preparation to start her own family. My littlest continually surprises (and frustrates) with her strength and independence. I’m not even sure I’m raising her at all, so much as she’s raising herself and can’t wait for her parents to get out of her way.

Kids are amazing. Good luck!
