My college-aged sons spent their spring breaks with me on a family vacation. We explored Boston and went to an NBA game, which has been a family dream for a long time. I don't know how much longer my sons will be interested in family trips. For many college students, spring break means raging parties, beachwear, and beer bongs. For my family — including my two college-aged sons — it meant exploring Boston together, soaking in history, and checking a Celtics home game off the bucket list.

Transportation Tesla Hong Kong This story is available exclusively to Business Insider subscribers. Become an Insider and start reading now. Have an account? . I'm not a car person and could drive whatever, but my husband loves cars. After doing tons of research, he decided we needed a Tesla Model Y. Insuring it is very expensive, so we are selling it and looking for a hybrid. Admittedly, I've never been a car person.

Kimberly Witt is an Iowa transplant placing roots in St. Paul, Minnesota, where she and her husband parent two young adult sons born in Ethiopia. She writes about the messiness of parenting, faith, and middle-agedness at www.WittWrites.com. I cleaned out the fridge and found a fuzzy green science experiment. In the back of the fruit drawer, hidden under my fresh Cara Cara oranges and Envy apples, I discovered a sad, old bag of green grapes, purchased before the holidays. You can judge if you like.

I followed my career dreams instead of chasing a higher-salary job. I'm not sure I want my children to do the same.

I've had the same conversation about leaving Facebook throughout the years. I can't do it because I've found support groups that help me being an adoptive mom. Facebook mom groups remind me that I'm not alone in what I'm going through. Over the last few weeks, I've seen the same conversation play out on Facebook over and over again — "I'm leaving. Find me on Discord, Slack, Mastodon, or whatever platform the cool kids are flocking to now."And every time, I have the same reaction. Mastodon?
