Just read in an advice column about a mother who made her 24-year-old son move out because she didn't like his girlfriend.
What? I've said it before, and I'll say it again: it is not up to parents to approve their grown children's choices; it is up to parents to ACCEPT their grown children's choices whether the choices are good or bad in the parents' eyes.
Their friends, jobs, lifestyle, the way they raise their own children are their choices to make.
We all had the opportunity to make our own choices as adults. They are entitled to make their own whether those are choices we'd make or not.
Rant over. Sort of. For now.
