[quote=Anonymous]How would you feel if your kid moved into their dorm room and there was a roach infestation.  like a bad one.

The college called an exterminator and hours later, there were corpses of bugs everywhere, but they had the kids move on in.

Part of me wants to get my kid out of that building and insist they are moved to another one.  Part of me wants to stop hovering.

I am terrified now that my kid is going to come home for the weekend and bring roaches into my home.  I do NOT do bugs in my home.

But I am struggling to "trust" that this issue is taken care of long-term.

The school is very old and the buildings are super old, so I get it...and I am trying very hard to be understanding and not do a helicoptering-freaking-out-mom thing.

But oh my god, the roaches. Dropping from the ceiling, in the shower, everywhere.  And it was daytime.  I can't stop thinking about it.

What would you do? My son told me it's "fine". So I guess I just cross my fingers?
