[quote=Anonymous]I'm worried about my kid. I got her a therapist who helps kids fledge. It's worth the investment, imo. I'm super-careful to keep all my anxiety to myself on this issue. I don't want my kid to get the vibe that i think she can't hack it. I've also decided that just because my kid is not the go-getter, mini-adult that my younger kid is, doesn't mean she'll flounder in college. Just because she watches TV in her spare time vs. learning guitar, getting a job, or creating 3-D artwork like my younger one does, is no indication of success or failure. I've decided that my younger one is the outlier, and all it means is good things for my younger one, not bad things for my older one. Does that make sense? OP, does your kid ever say things like, "When I'm at X college, I'll need...." or "I want string lites in my dorm?" Just trying to figure out if your kid visualizes him/herself there.[/quote]
