My son is 17 its scaring the hell out of me too.
He went and stayed with his dad for a week and a half. Since he's been back he is hanging with friends and not me as much. He's a late bloomer I guess but I thought we would always be really close. He's pulling away from me, but he's almost a man. I need to let him fly.
If I had a daughter I think it would be more difficult bc oh I'd be so worried. You are handling it well.

. Its hard to see when we're in the middle of it though.
