My oldest son will be 12 in August. I realized the other day he does not need or want me around with his buddies. He recently received his Arrow of Light and crossed over to a Boy Scout Troop. His first camping trip with the Troop is this weekend. He asked me to not attend. I know it is natural but it is hard to let him become independent in certain areas. I am basically talking Mom off the ledge. We have been together for every milestone in his life thus far. Any advice to help us through this time?
