From the moment your children were born, life was never the same. The years of school, meal planning, sports, and extracurriculars took up so much of your free time. Now, the children have grown, and and left home. It’s a time of mixed emotions, new routines, excitement, and even fear. What did the experience feel like to you? How did your family deal with the transition? What advice would you give to parents embarking on a new journey as empty nesters?

 

Our Life Point Book Series is all about guiding people through life’s most exciting and challenging transitions – and we believe real stories from real people like you have the power to help others navigate these big moments. We’re offering $150 for the best empty nesting story. It's a chance to appear in our next book.
