[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your gonna get a whole bunch of “my kids did it all themselves and if your kids can’t they are not mature enough for college”. Yes, it’s insane getting it all done and I constantly dreaded that we forgot or missed something. [/quote] OP here and am bracing myself for this. I am definitely an anxious person, and I can’t just sit back and watch. She may be ok if I do, but if she’s not then I would blame myself for not doing more. Everything I read about teens says they need guidance, so I tend to think parents who didn’t have any worries and it went seamlessly are lucky or their kids found support and guidance elsewhere.[/quote] They need guidance and direction. Too many choices can be anxiety inducing. Help the make a list of colleges. Worry about that small list. Make a list of tasks and completion dates together. Ask for help from others if you need it. Success is not a straight line up it usually has peaks and valleys.[/quote]
