January 26, 2007, Newsletter Issue #193: Make the Most of an Empty Nest

Tip of the Week

To help cope with empty nest syndrome, when you are faced with an empty home after the kids move out, convert the childrenīs bedrooms as soon as it is feasible and affordable into practical and usable space.... this will keep you from wandering into their rooms and getting melancholy over past times. Do not worry about hurting your childīs feelings or allowing them space for future visits home. Your child will do just fine on a pull-out couch in the basement or living room, and is not likely to be home every weekend. Your child will have a full life, and so should you. Havenīt you always wanted a den, office, exercise room, etc.? Make the most of your situation.
