Like everyone else, finding the right words has been hard. So, if it’s challenging for us, it must be even harder for these 18-23-year-olds.

Now, our parenting roles mostly involve just being there for them—listening, guiding, and, most of all, praying. It’s never been about money; it's always been about the relationships.
