The Empty nest syndrome is the time of life that parents have to deal with their children finishing high school and leaving home to attend college, get a job far from home, or join the military. The feelings for parents with Empty nest syndrome are feeling lonely, unhappy, and/or worrisome. (Feldman, 2014.p.519). Many parents feel some great adjustments must take place in order to properly cope with this stage of family life. According to (Feldman, 2014), women, especially those who have remained home as homemakers experience these feelings and often find themselves within Empty Nest Syndrome. Research shows that fathers deal with this time of life a little differently. One report showed fathers who's children had recently left home showed them “either happy or neutral about this departure.”(Feldman, 2014). Most of those showing signs of real struggle with empty nest syndrome are the mothers. Research suggests that this might be due to the mothers being more involved throughout the childrearing ages.(Feldman, 2014).
