Has our YA novelist poster switched over to thrillers? I'm here for it.

Lots of parents want their kids close by. The WWIII anxiety is a bit unusual but most kids do go to college in-state.

I think there are many advantages to having the college within driving distance OP, but not because of WW3.

I am more worried about getting my kids to “safe states” for women’s health. And then possibly out of the country in worst case scenario.

RIP to the women who didn’t have to die

If something happened here, there is no escaping on our clogged highways.

This is an excellent point. Somewhere in the pastoral midwest or Canada would probably be best?

Canada is a mess right now. It's not the easy going, polite, open minded Canada we knew of and perhaps visited growing up and the best colleges there have been some of the worst when it comes to protests that are NOT peaceful.

Agree - it’s why we don’t want our son to apply to a service academy.

Wasn’t WWWIII supposed to happen 4 years ago and it didn’t.

You need help if you are worried about this.

Don’t let your neuroses impact your kids.
