"We put all this time into raising our kids and hope that they'll grow up, get married and live around the corner from us," a friend said. "A few years ago my son decided to make aliyah. He's now in the Israeli army and loves his life. I want him to be happy, but I want him close by, not 12 hours away. Is there something wrong with me?"
"Not at all," I told her. "You're entitiled to your feelings. It's not easy having your kids make decisions that change their lives. That's something I'm still getting accustomed to myself."
