I remember 4 years ago

My Family 4 years agoI found my old photograph (4 years ago) yesterday, and i remember when all of my children still stay with me and my wife. Now they’re teenager and stay in another city far away from where I’m. It was very nice and sweet memory when we live in the same home and always together in discussion to solved all family problems, together in doing anything and to go anywhere.

Last year after discuss carefully with my wife and children, i sent my children for stay and school in another city far away from where I’m to learn more anything about life and how facing all problems without parent beside them.

I live and works in mining town, where everything are very easy because company provide all of employee requirements (including their family needs) for free. Company built all facilities for us; transportation facilities (airport, bus station, airplane, school bus, public bus, coaster, etc), houses (complete with aircondition and furniture), utilities (phone, internet, water and electricity), market (mini and traditional), education for employee’s children (from playgroup, kindergarten up to academy), recreation facilities (children playground, waterfront recreation, golf driving range and 9 holes golf green, yacht club, clubhouse, etc), tight security and other facilities to make employee and their family feel like live at big cities.

In one side that condition is very good for us who live at this mining town, but for my children that condition is not good for their future life. Living in the town built by company is like living in the dreamland. In fact, real world out there is not always safe and anything we need we must have an effort to get it. My children must learn to know, familiar and can handle or facing all of problems by themself.  That’s why we (me, my wife and my children) decide to live separate. For sure, before it happened i was introduce them all of difficult situation when we were in vacation and teach them how to facing all problems by them self.

When the first time they live separate far away from me and my wife, we actually feel suffer, very sad, miss them a lot and almost everyday we’re making teleconfrence with them via internet / v sat.

Now in their 15 years old, they’re many times talk and act wisely, can cook delicious by them self, capable to adapt almost many things and take care them self. They don’t know if i still spying and monitoring their day to day activities through severals third parties. Hope they’re not read this.

    That was very touching. It must be hard for you to let your kids live seperately from you when they were still very young.
