Your children remain your children till your death but they get into their new life after getting married. This is a changed phase for them. They are in a way starting a new life of their own. They will have to deal with new responsibilities like once you did. So, once your children get married, as a parent you must step back out of their lives. For many people, marriage entails 100% loyalty to the spouse than to the family (mother and father). Children especially need to make a break from their parents after he/she takes a wife/husband. As a parent you should understand how to behave with your married children other wise, it can lead to heir break up which you wouldn’t like to have.
