“I think as homeschool moms, we can think, oh, the best years are behind us. As Christians, I think every year gets to be the best year of our life as we pursue God and see what he's doing and rest in his sovereignty and continue to expand our understanding of hope that we have of salvation and his redemption." ~ Rachael Carman

Discussion Questions:1. How can homeschool parents avoid thinking the "best years are behind them" once their children graduate? What perspective should they have instead?
2. Why is it important for parents to acknowledge that new experiences can be hard or scary for children, even if the parents have grown past those fears themselves?
3. How can parents help prepare their children throughout life for transitions and changes, framing them as "new adventures" where they can trust God is already present?
4. What are some ways parents can be a "safe person" for their adult children to express their fears and uncertainties to, especially around graduation time when the future feels unknown?
5. How can parents avoid making their graduated children feel ashamed if they don't know what they want to do next in life? What perspective and support can they provide instead?
6. Why is it important for parents to have trusted friends and mentors they can go to for support and advice as they navigate their children transitioning to adulthood?
7. How can parents manage their own fears about their children's futures and the decisions they will make as adults? What spiritual practices can help with this?
8. In what ways can parents celebrate and praise their adult children's good choices and accomplishments, making much of how God is working in their lives?
9. How does establishing a strong, open relationship with children from a young age set the stage for them to feel safe coming to their parents in adulthood?
10. What lessons can parents take from the Psalms about honestly expressing their fears and worries to God, while ultimately placing their trust in His sovereignty?
