[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Has he ever done anything by himself? Like taken a flight by himself, stayed all night in your house by himself. So many parents send their kids to college, and the kids have never done basic things to be independent. Being independent and having confidence in yourself, helps these kids feel successful at college.[/quote] OP here yea this is what so crazy! He wanted to go to Europe this summer to see a concert and did it entirely himself. He has absolutely no issues with that. He flew into a big city, took a train, and then navigated the subway. We’re absolutely outlier parents as we have even vacationed and left him home alone in high school. He just doesn’t want to move out of his house that he’s known since birth. This anxiety is very reared about leaving him. He even knows kids at this school that he enjoys and has a great roommate from what I can tell. This sudden anxiety has really thrown us for a loop.
