All you need to decide is for TODAY.

how much do we in our conversation with our children trust their judgment and how much should we try to impose our will on whether they should come home we should trust our children need to learn how to make decisions for themselves they need to learn to trust their Instinct and intuition we should teach and instill that sense of responsibility on the other hand they're not necessarily sophisticated mature and don't have the life experience to trust I I know one person whose child was eager to leave everyone around them was leaving their parent walked them through it and the child concluded that the right place for them was to stay and when the child wrote a beautiful note a couple days lat to the parent they said thank you for helping me press pause sometimes the momentum is moving so fast the things around us are changing press pause press pause and have the space to reflect and think and decide what's right you don't have to decide for next week or even tomorrow for today you want to stay so today you're staying maybe tomorrow maybe next week maybe in a month you want to come home all you need to decide is for today
