I think not every kid has parents they want to hang with....it’s more like we give them wings to fly and when it’s time they fly....
I get that (time to fly) but they can fly while still living at home. They should be flying throughout their lives.
I was raised in an area (South Philly) and culture (Irish and Italian) and time I guess (80s) where most people didn’t move out of their family home until they married for the most part.
This whole “launching” thing is just another crap liberal thing imo. Generations of families live together for the most part. It’s all about family.
My husband went to college at 18 and never looked back and doesn’t have a real relationship with his family. He “escaped” while I relished the time we spent with my family and that my kids had a great relationship with my parents until they died. I hope we have the same relationship.
