Are you desperate to get out your children from home?

I have dreaded the day since my first child was born about the day she would leave home . My cousin laughs at me and with each stage that they grow I become more upset . I even said to my husband today that I am going to be lost and beside myself when I have no children left to have Easter for as we were getting the last of the Easter stuff . My children laugh at me all the time because I always tell them they have to build beside me so I can visit everyday and that if they ever move away they will have to make enough money to come visit a couple of times a week . They know I am only picking and will never stop them from doing what they want in life but I dread the day my children are old enough to move away and start their own lives . I love having them around so much and don't know what I will do with my time when they are no longer living in my house . My friends tell me not to worry because they know me and I will end up having another baby , just so there will always be one in the house lol . My oldest is 17 now and my baby is 1 yet I see how fast the time went with my older children and know that some day I will have to fact the fact that they will all be gone . Not looking forward to that . I honestly can't imagine why anyone would want to move their children out . I had my children because I truely wanted them in my life and I can't see ever feeling any different in life . They are my world no matter where they are or how far away they move . I will move Heaven and Earth to see them as much as I can .

that is a surpise that people will go all this way to try to get ride of their childeren, in some country the kid stay with their parents, and when they grow up and can make money they have to take care of their parents in their home or get them one near by. i wonder what would they think of that?

Well, our son left home when he was 18 and that was his choice but it also had to do with his career and further education. He still came home for long weekends and special occassions plus about 6 weeks in 2 separate times a year. It had nothing to do with our wishes but although it was a little sad, we also believed that we had bought him up in the right way. He had the skills to be independent, was able to stand on his own two feet, look after himself and that is part of rearing a child. We know that they need to make their own life and so we were happy he felt confident enough to do so. Of course since then, he has returned to live with us from time to time but it has always been a temporary measure. We are still close as a family, talk on the phone regularly when we are apart, and enjoy the company of each other when we are together. That is being part of a family, it is being part of bringing up children and it is part of life.

I never wanted my Children out of the Home. I have actually moved away as the Air is better here for my Illness and I wish my Children would have moved with me but they have their own Lives, they have stayed in the House I bought 12 years ago it is now on my Sons Name My Daughter might eventually move down here but I don't know. I would have never ever wanted my Kids to leave home. I love my Kids very much and I am proud of them

I never wanted any of my children to leave home. I loved having them around me as they were great company. My daughter and her two children came back to live with me after she seperated from her partner and I even got extra rooms built on to the house so that they would have more space. They lived with me for twelve years until she met and married her present husband. Now I miss them but they come to stay every weekend which is not so bad and I will have the children for two weeks starting next week as they will be on their school holidays.

I also would like to live with my children for ever. I still live with my parents and we are happy together. We have 9 family members and livng very happy life. We share each others happinesses and griefs, we take discions with mutual consents ets. This is the essence of life to live together as much as it could be possible

People who are enjoying themselves can only get their children out from home.

Sweetlady, a lot depends on the relationships that parents have with their children. Some get along, others do not. So, it depends on the situation. If they get along, it's wonderful to live together. If not, it's a nightmare.

I wish my children would all come back home. They all left at 18 to go to school. Watching them take their belongings from the house was the most heart wrenching thing I have ever expereienced.

Some parents are just like that and I find it hard to understand so I don't even bother.

I am not a parent, but I can speak for my parents. They do not want the children out of home. If posible, they would want us to stay together. To them, children are always children, even if the children is married. Standing from the child point of view, it is us who want out, to be independent, to have the freedom to do what we want without anyone breathing down our neck :P

I have 2 wonderful kids right now and as much as possible I like to be with them during my free time.I almost spend the whole weekends with my family that's why there's no reason I want my children out from our house.We love them very much and we are willing to do everything just to make them happy and grow a better person someday.Parents must love their children and that's our primary responsibility for them.

I would love it if my children lived with me for my whole life. I will never force them out.

I think i like my children to be with me until they are not getting married. I really love to know that my children is just around in our home. Maybe sometimes i got angry when they let me worry, or they do something but of course even if they do such thing, i will always love them and want to be with them all the time.

Here in sweden most kids move out at the age of 18 and they do it because they want to. Someone older than 23 living at home will be scared to say so in public. I moved out at the age of 18 and I am not sorry I did. Sure -I love my parents and i visit them all the time, but it sure is nice to have your own place =)

Mine are 14 and 11 and already have a 26 year old on his own. That is the natural progression of things. Our job is to prepare for them to live on their own. They are not meant for us to take care of and make them dependent on us forever. We usually don't outlive them. We deserve our own time and the special moments with grandbabies. That is the good life. I wish you much luck in learning as you raise your children. I look forward to seeing how well I did in preparing my kids to be on their own.

oh TV shows are crazy and disgusting for me!!! they can invent everything, and people can say everything...money is the only important thing, no matter what we can think...the problem is that there are people who watch these things...I don't have children, too but I wish I had and I hope I would create for them a family very similar to the one I have and I had...a family where you are sure of being loved, where they want you to become a safe and independent person, but where you can always go if you have a problem or whenever you want to share love and affection

i think if you need you own space,you can sak you husband,or your parents to take care children~
