Summary and headline written by AI from the source article. How we work
Demcsák Zsuzsa, a Hungarian television host, is adapting to life after her two children moved abroad to pursue their studies.
She described a difficult transition as long-held family routines changed suddenly. For 21 years, her days centered around motherhood, and rebuilding a daily life without her children present took several weeks. Demcsák now fills her time with work, including hosting shows, leading communication trainings, and providing consultancy services to companies. She admits a significant emptiness remains despite a busy schedule.
Before her children left, she prepared herself for the change in lifestyle, anticipating the need to reorganize her days. Previously, Demcsák cooked two meals daily for her family, but she reports rarely entering the kitchen since their departure. She and her children are now working to establish a new pattern of communication, planning to meet in person about once a month when possible.
She emphasized that while she raised her children to be independent, accepting their move was still emotionally challenging.
