Leaving on bad terms or after an argument can often make moving out more challenging.<\/p>\n<p>Visit or phone home when you feel homesick. This could mean scheduling video calls every week until you find your feet.<\/p>\n<p>Make a list of the concerns you have with possible ways to resolve them.<\/p>\n<p>Be proactive about making friends. Other young people who may work with you or a supportive social group, especially if they are of the same age group, can ease loneliness and help with the transition to independence.<\/p>\n<p>Develop a routine. Find new activities, like going to the gym or starting a hobby and explore your new environment to help you feel more comfortable and confident.<\/p>\n<p>Make your home feel like home. Your family home is often based on your parent\u2019s interests, and your new space is an opportunity to reflect your identity. Take the time to figure this out for yourself so you can create a space where you feel safe and comfortable.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDon\u2019t let your anxieties about this important step towards adulthood cloud your judgement in preparing your child for life outside the family home.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Here are ways parents can help their child leave home with confidence<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Set goals and timelines once the right age approaches. This gives the adult child time to plan and organise themselves financially with your assistance.<\/p>\n<p>Help your child build a budget. Give them responsibilities like getting them to make their own doctor\u2019s appointments and pay for some of the things they need themselves. This will build their confidence.<\/p>\n<p>Prepare them for the reality of chores and household responsibilities. Teach them to cook and let them participate in the daily running of the home.<\/p>\n<p>Change the dynamics. Give them the privacy and autonomy with the responsibility that comes with adulthood. Let them know you have confidence in them to be responsible adults.<\/p>\n<p>Reassure them that the family home will always be there for them when they need support.<\/p>\n<p>When you find you are a new empty-nester, be kind to yourself. Realise that while you will miss your child, your newfound freedom presents an exciting phase in your life and can be very rewarding.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Leaving home to become an independent adult should be an exciting time for any young person. \u201cMoving out of home is undeniably one of the most significant transitions in a young adult\u2019s life.
