Moving out

Question
Hello,

we have a question. Our son is 31 years old, of excellent health and has now decided to buy an apartment. We are a bit concerned now whether he will continue to be as healthy when living alone and whether he will be able to work long-term. We know that this is a difficult issue. Many thanks for your support.
Answer
Hello,

this might be hard on you after more than 30 years of "mothering," but it is actually a good sign: that your son has the courage, that he feels so well that he is able to have the courage to move out. And you can support and help him even "from a distance." Anyway nobody can predict what will happen, but such a step is also part of a certain quality of life -- great that it is possible.

All to best to you and your son
