Ever since the world started facing the pandemic last year, everyone's life has changed in one way or another.
The parents of the two already student girls, Barack and Michelle Obama faced their return home, to attend online lectures, as the campus closed.
Something like this changed the dynamism of the family as all of a sudden, Michelle and Barack would be living again with their daughters 22 and 19 years old.
"It was supposed that the girls had 'emptied' our nest. I was celebrating the fact that they would create their lives in independence and create space for me to experience the fact that I had to let them go," he said. former First Lady.
Despite the fact that things did not go as planned, the experience was positive, as the parents managed to recover all the "stolen" moments from time away from them.
"This time allowed us to make up for all the moments we lost. Those moments are so important to us and I say that this period has made our bond with the children even stronger."
Their return home also changed the way Michelle treated Malia and Sasha. It is very important for him to treat them as adults and not to violate their independence.
"When the child grows up, you have to develop another relationship with them. They did not return home to follow the same rules they left. I do not want to do that either because I do not want to violate their independence. Adult girls came and our conversations are more like some conversations between peers than mother-daughter ones.
Among other things, the pandemic and home teaching has allowed parents to see another side of their children, the way they interact in relation to lessons, communicating with other professors or students.
