Tracy is a mother in her early 40s. she is taking part in a study which is investigating the "empty nest" phenomenon when children leave home. tracy has two daughters who have recently moved out, one to attend college and the other to move in with her boyfriend. when asked how tracy is adjusting to life without the girls, she is most likely to say,

I believe the answer is: I have had very little trouble adjusting to their departure.

If the couples experiencing separation with their children in the middle age (in mid 40s) , it could actually benefit them emotionally.
During the time their children are gone, they have more time to do things such that is not possible when they're taking care of their children (such as pursuing a hobby or going on long vacations)

C; skin, is the answer!
