[quote=Anonymous]Last year when my daughter was a freshman I tried not to contact her for at least one week so she could settle in - including texts. We agreed to start weekly facetime sessions on Sundays once she had been there for two weeks. Once we did, it became the regular means of communication and we all looked forward to them. Sometimes they were ten minutes and sometimes an hour. After the first week I did text her but it wasn't every day, though it was fairly consistent (maybe 3-5 texts a week). All in all it felt like a good balance to all of us.[/quote]
