Mom friendships change as teens become more independent
Question of the Day:
“My teenagers are getting older and more independent. I know I need to let go, but I’m having a hard time. I think what scares me the most is being alone. So many of my friendships were formed through my children’s activities (soccer moms, theater moms, etc.). I’m worried about what my social life will look like after my kids leave the house. Already I’ve noticed a drop since my daughter got her driver’s license. I need a strategy to make and maintain friendships at this point in my life.” AlyssaThree tiers of relationships
1 – The Inner Circle – Partner, parents, siblings, children 2 – Friends, colleagues, acquaintances 3 – Neighborhood, community, people you interact with, take classes with, etc. It’s important to start thinking about what I really want. Which tier am I missing and would like to focus on more? Do I want to vacation with girlfriends? Do I want to feel more connected to my community? Or do I just want someone to talk to about my day?Supermom Kryptonite – Regret-proof your life
