My only friend is leaving me. My daughter has decided to move to Florida at the end of the...

Children have to leave their parents in order to grow as people. It's just the way of things

You'll survive. It's kinda mean to stay too close. After all, we do eventually have to leave this world and them alone in it.

Now you get to go visit her in Florida. I’m sure she will be excited to show you around once she’s settled in. Also, you can video call!

She’s always gonna love her mom. It doesn’t change that or your bond

I know the feeling. I’m pretty close to my son and having him move away left a pretty big gap in my life.

I hope you can find peace as you make these adjustments. I’ll be trying, too.

Fortunately technology is available to help you stay connected. Use it as much as you can.

Like other people have said, it’s part of the process in life.

Good luck to you both.

That must be so difficult. I hope you can find ways to deal with it and persevere.

With a bond like that distance should not be a huge problem. And you can always visit. I am sure you two will figure out a new routine and ways to make it work.

I grew up in a military family and I am very close to my father and so figuring out how to be away from those I loved was something I learned to deal with. You will find your stride.

It's really nice that you are so sad that your daughter is leaving but it's also good for her at the same time.
I'm sure you will be seeing a lot more Florida
I'm sure you're a wonderful mom and you have raised her to be an outstanding young lady

Awe so sorry, you probably have to let her go, but you potential could consider moving to Florida with her? Or no?

That's sad. Make new friends and go see her when you ca.

Hope you get to meet her soon
