My sons are grown now, also. You know you did a good job when they come back to you and say "Thank you, Mama, for raising me like you did"
Both of mine have done that at different times. I raised them alone for 10 years and felt like I had to do a better job than parents who raised their kids together.
When they needed their rear-ends popped, it happened. I also didn't like it when girls called them. I guess I was old fashioned, but when I was growing up only trashy girls called boys.
