Expectations from a parent can weigh heavy on a child. As the child grows into an adult acceptance is what they need most of all.   Expectations have a way of eroding values of the child and parent. Their morals decay, sending them reeling from the aftermath of societal decline.   Acceptance brings joyful self-awareness. Children will become valuable adults with loving partners who express kindness. Parents, it is time to let go of expectations.     Author Notes This was inspired by a conversation with a friend who visited their parents over the weekend. Their parents would not accept them as they became free-thinking adults. Thanks for reading and reviewing.
