Show them you love them so much. A warm hug, a kiss on the cheek, an "I love you". These small actions are very, very important, although your son/daughter now prefers hanging around with friends over being in mother’s arms. But out there, they will face things that can make them astonished, or scared, and they run to you. Let them know, you are always there, not only to explain, but also to help and love them.
