[quote=Anonymous]DS is a freshman in college in another state and is about to come home for the first time for Thanksgiving. I am beyond excited to see him! I spoke to him last night though and he informed me of all the plans he's made with friends and other folks during break and I am disappointed. He is almost 19 and has his autonomy at school - I'm not going to make him ask permission to make plans, and I certainly want him to be able to catch up with his friends, coaches, etc., but I do want the chance to see and visit with him. It got me thinking about setting expectations for Christmas and summer breaks as well. For those who have BTDT, how did you handle family obligations and other household obligations when your technically adult child currently attending college was home for breaks? Thanks for your understanding guidance![/quote]
