One of the family stages/transitions is called "the Empty Nest" we stated that this is most likely going to negatively affect the father because they will miss their kids more than the mother. True False

The correct answer is false.

It is false that this is most likely going to negatively affect the father because they will miss their kids more than the mother.

The feeling of sadness or loneliness is the same for both parents. The "Empty Nest Syndrome" is what parents feel when the last son or daughter leaves home and they feel are alone in the house. That void or emptiness feeling often hits hard on parents because they were so used to have a companion for years: And then, all of a sudden, they are alone again.
