If you thought it was tough when your student went off to college, imagine watching dozens of high school seniors leave for college every year. That's what happens to Jill Magnante, my guest on today's episode of "Your Turn To Fly."
Jill is an empty nester herself and she's also a high school English teacher. Every year she sees some of her favorite students head off into the world, which is like being an empty nester on steroids.
Jill offers a unique perspective on how we, as parents, can support and encourage our grown children once they leave home. We talk about how to let go of expectations when it comes to college choices. We also talk about how to support our kids with difficult decisions and how to avoid making decisions for them. We also discuss the reasons why we can be encouraged our students will be okay in the world.
On a personal note, since Jill is an English teacher, I pray these show notes are grammatically correct. I'm sure I'll hear if they aren't.
That said, thanks for listening!
