[quote=Anonymous]When my now 21-year-old was 5, she told me she did not want to go to college because she did not want to be away from me. (I told her she could still go to college and live at home if she wanted) Now she is not only going to college hours away from home, she will be studying abroad for a semester. She got past her need to be with me all the time, as will your child. Part of raising a child is giving them the skills they need to take care of themselves and letting them do so. I recommend the book How to Raise an Adult for a perspective on this idea.[/quote]
