I agree with everything said - but keep in mind you ARE their kid.   My
mother was still doing the mother thing when I was 40 (married,
self-supporting, etc.).   And my 24 year old TAB son periodically reminds
me that he's not a kid any more (but he reminds me gently, since I'm still
helping him go thru college).

(Bobby, aren't yours still "your kids"?)

Good luck.
Bob
