[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Know your child. Some personalities can benefit from a single if they need to recharge from socializing. Some personalities would be drained in the calm of a single. Would you child withdraw into the single or use it wisely? This question is best answered by it, knowing what your kid needs rather than any hard and fast rules.[/quote] Yup. This is the best advice. OP, are you talking about Wesleyan? If so, my kid wanted and got a single first year and had zero regrets. They met friends immediately at orientation events, joined activities and met more friends, but they were able to get the solitude they needed for decompressing and sleeping. This is a very social kid who also needs space. It would have been a disaster for me socially to have a single. But for this kid, it was the right move.[/quote]
