[quote=Anonymous]I think it's important to recognize when a child is very dependent and reluctant to venture out, and to try and help them at least give it a shot because there is value in standing on your own, if for self-esteem only. But it's more than just moving out: driving, going on day trips, leaving the house and doing things independently. I don't know your niece and nephew and their behavior. Going away to college or not isn't the only way to be independent.[/quote]
