First time 18 year old dd

[Elusiveone]

Is getting the bus on her own from college to home today.
Now before anyone mentions shes 18 and should be doing this on her own by now. Well dd is disabled and has really done well lately with gaining her independence slowly. She usually gets sen transport but wants to do the whole journey back to on her own. She knows the bus and where to get on but i meet her off the bus. Shes been on the bus lots if times but today she is going to go to the bus stop on her own unescorted. She has had a scheme called bus buddies so has been shown everything so today shes taking the plunge to do it all herself. Its only one bus so no changing and a twenty minute ride.
Aibu for worrying about this as everyone said she will be fine.

It's only natural to worry
You must be proud that she is taking these steps towards independence. Well done OP and well done your DD.

You must be so proud of her. Sounds like you are a fabulous mother. Well done to your DD.

Very natural! Good luck and big congratulations!

It will be fine, and the second time won't feel so bad, and the 50th time you will not even blink an eyelid!

Well done to both of you!

Thankyou all for your kind messages. Well she did it all by herself with no problems at all. Dd is very proud of herself and i am proud of her to.

Fantastic! Well done to both of you for getting to this point
