Dropped son at university

I just dropped my son at university and I’m feeling all kinds of emotions. Excited, sad, worried, proud. Is it okay to allow myself to not worry? I feel like I’m inviting something bad to happen if I’m not constantly worrying about him.

Of course it is! Worrying unnecessarily doesnt6a achieve anything.

It gets better OP. But it’s not easy. Mine has started his second year now but I still worry, and love hearing what he’s been getting up to on his own. Wonderful and scary in equal measure.
