[quote=Anonymous]We're meeting up with a family friend who is a senior when we visit one of the colleges next week. She will likely take DD around campus a bit. I think the easiest time to meet up with her is late afternoon, based on our schedule. DD has some anxiety, and while she is excited to look at colleges, the trip may be a bit overwhelming for her. If we were a family of extroverts, I think the polite thing to do would be to offer to take the college student out for dinner. Do I need to do this? I'm very happy to send a thank you note with a gift card from one of the local coffee shops. If it were just me in town for some reason, I'd be happy to take her out. I just feel like my primary obligation is to my daughter, and that might be a lot for her (having toured a different school already that morning). I know when I was in college it was a real treat for someone to take you to a restaurant and pay for dinner - I don't want to make her feel bad if we don't do that.[/quote]
