Adult Children And The Troubles They Cause

When your children are born and you gaze upon their innocence and never envision the stress they will bring. Oh when they are young of course there is stress but most of their problems can be solved with a kiss, a hug, or even just a cookie. They get a little older and it takes a little more but still you can usually cope with their life woes. Then bam they are adults with problems much bigger and more life changing. The problem is that you can tell there is a problem but they don't always let you in on the details. So you worry and fret and worry some more. Sometimes they do let you know what the problem is and you try to fix it for them knowing full well that it is not the right thing to do. After all they are adults and it is their life; still they are still your babies and you cannot help but worry and fret and worry and fret. You spend a lot of time wishing for the days of kisses and hugs and cookies.
