““As you continue to shift responsibilities and roles during the last years of high school, be sure to initiate honest dialogue with your kids. Something along the lines of "This is all new for me, as I know it is for you. Our roles are changing. We need one another differently, and we have different expectations about how we should be interacting during this shift to your adulthood. Let's be patient with one another and honest in a kind way. I'll tell you when you've crossed the line, and please do the same for me.””
