Reflection on Raising KidsI am so proud of my two girls. They have grown up to make wise and thoughtful decisions. It is that time in my life when I can see how all the hard work of parenting has paid off. My eldest works a lot of hours while she is in undergrad. She is so respectful of her supervisors, taking into consideration what impact her actions will have on the business. She is aware of the importance of budgeting, planning, loyalty, dedication. So this week when I asked her if she wanted to come home and social distance herself with family her reply was so wise. "I feel like if anyone has been exposed it has been me. I have been working everyday (in the restaurant business) and have been around so many people. I don't want to come home when there is such a long incubation period and potentially spread the virus to anyone else." As disappointed as I was that she was not going home, I cannot argue with her logic. It is comments like these when a parent can feel like they have done their job well.
