No one tells you that pr***en years don’t just stretch your child.
They stretch you.
Your patience.
Your confidence.
Your triggers.
Your identity.
You’re adjusting boundaries.
Learning healthy emotional expression.
Practicing emotional regulation.
Relearning communication.
Questioning your instincts.
Trying not to overcorrect.
It’s growth on both sides of the relationship.
And growth is rarely comfortable.
If you’ve felt like you’re being reshaped in this season too…
that makes sense.
What part of you feels like it’s growing the most right now?
