“Your two books “Flown the Coop” are a valuable help to me in letting go of my daughter to study in the Netherlands last summer. And becoming new myself on this way. We just had a nice talk at breakfast about our family Christmas – and now she is leaving again tomorrow for her new life and all is well.”
