Parents of Grads Ramble Around Their Empty Nests BY mArY O’DOnneLL ‘10 If you experience feelings of loneliness and worthlessness, or find yourself wondering what to do with the time you usually allot to picking up laundry, you might have a case of empty-nesters syndrome. These symptoms are often prevalent in parents around the time of graduation as they bid farewell to their children. If your days used to include working job professions similar to that of a chauffer, cook or maid, without receiving a check or any form of appreciation, and now you find yourself staring at pictures of your children or looking out the window when the school bus drives by, you can be considered an empty-nester. By definition, the condition of an empty-nester is more common in women, and a strong paternal or maternal bond between parent and child can make this condition worse. However, many parents have found outlets to deal with their empty-nesters syndrome. “Luckily, I have more kids at home to keep me busy,” said a mother, “But when I go around to make the beds every morning, I know I will cry when I see the bed already made in my son’s room.” Obviously, letting go is going to be a long process for some parents. “I don’t know what I’m going to do,” said an anonymous parent. “Frankly, I’ll probably just cry myself to sleep every night.” Some parents are trying to get an early start on saying goodbye and have begun to put other things before their children. • 7 • “My mom loves her dogs,” confessed a senior. “The other day I was sitting on the couch, and my dog started barking at me so that he could lay on the couch. My mom then ordered me to get off the couch and sit on the floor because it was my dog’s turn to sit on the couch. The dog comes first now.” Other parents take a different approach to their child’s departure. “I’m pumped,” exclaimed Mickey McGrain. “I’m moving.” Hopefully she will give her senior boys, Steven and Ryan, her new address. Like McGrain, many parents are seeing their children’s departure as an opportunity to leap into all the things they didn’t get to do when the kids were around. Some parents are starting fresh, going back to school and getting a degree for example. Maybe that is just an excuse to get a diploma alongside their child. Whatever parents’ method of coping, the supportive network of fellow empty-nesters will ease the pain. Appeared in the May 2010 Issue of the Jesuit Crusader. Academic Stars Shine Brightly BY HAYLeY KrACH ‘11 Jesuit students continue to demonstrate their academic excellence by receiving awards for their diverse achievements. These students are going beyond what is required for an academic “A” by submitting papers and participating in academic competitions. One such highly motivated student is junior Tulsee Doshi. She has been on the Mayor’s Youth Advisory Board of Beaverton for three years now and was recently selected as one of three teenagers in the United States to represent problems dealing with the youth of today and the role they play in their families. Doshi also works with the National League of Cities, a national organization for mayors and local leaders from all 50 states. She attends legislative meetings to give input on issues relating to today’s youth, such as education, health and obesity. “Some people may not think teenagers can do anything to help the community,” said Doshi. “But I believe I can do something, even if it is small.” Junior Manali Yavatkar shows her drive to help the community. She won an award for the submission of a paper to the Nicodemus Wilderness Project. She describes in great detail the various ways young teenagers can help their community. She received a $500 scholarship for her top-ranked essay (175 essays were submitted from around the globe). Students at Jesuit also demonstrate their impeccable writing skills.
