About This Quote
It’s better to let go of your daughter with grace. This means that you can give your daughter the closure she needs without it being mean or hurtful. If you continue to hold on, the pain will only get worse and you will end up feeling more hurt than your daughter. You will also be making your daughter feel ashamed of her parents and that isn't right.
The last thing you want is for your daughter to be ashamed of you or think badly of you. By letting go gracefully, you ensure that your daughter doesn't resent you for letting her go and always has a positive memory of her time with you.
