[quote=Anonymous][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.

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]

Get the book titled How to Raise and Adult  https://www.amazon.com/How-Raise-Adult-Overparenting-Prepare/dp/1250093635/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=how+to+raise+and+adult&qid=1627059026&sr=8-3

Also, know that teens change incredibly fast.  Your 18 year old will be VERY different than you 16 year old.  Aside from toddlerhood, this is when they mature the quickest. [/quote]

Thank you for suggesting this book. Great reviews!

I'm not OP but I also feel overwhelmed by the teen years. [/quote]
