Introduction

Empty Nesters is our tribe

"Children leaving the parental home marks a time of freedom, spontaneity, time and satisfaction for empty nesters. Nesters don’t see the children departing as being a ‘life stage’ as such, but rather a natural progression, another step forward. There are other events which they believe will trigger real change… retirement, the loss of a partner or financial difficulties are amongst these.

This is a transitional time for this generation….children leaving, grandchildren being born, parents dying, retirement looming and old-age knocking. "
