I wonder if this happens to others on the faculty. Have you asked around to see, just out of curiosity? I wonder if you're in these students' subconscious as a mother figure and their worries about themselves are getting transferred onto you!

All any parent can do as their children grow up is let them know they are loved, and trust them to a higher power! I think it is one of the hardest things about parenting grown children. We want them to be independent and make their own way, but it is hard to let go. grammajudybhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00562284172505849145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32469880.post-22955907386153189152016-02-12T09:14:01.150-05:002016-02-12T09:14:01.150-05:00Yeah, what are the odds?

You teach students from all cultures, some of which this is normal every day stud ??? Ask the next one if there is something you can or should do. Yikes.
