[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DD insist on attending college in California. We want her to stay within [b]driving distance, 6 hours max.[/b] We have already told her the only way would be if she [b]received scholarships.[/b] How do we deter her away from insisting on going to colleges out there?  If you have a DC who attends college where a plane ride is needed, what are the advantages and disadvantages?[/quote]

OP - issue with distance or money? [/quote]

OP here, money isn't an issue, but I want to have an opportunity where[b] if she gets home sick we could pick her up[/b] etc. [b]She has other siblings and it would be nice for her to be home during some of her breaks. [/b]She's been away to over night camps etc. and currently takes metro with friends to the mall etc. We are allowing her to be a "teenager", but the logistics of attending college that far away is too[b] cumbersome.[/b] [/quote]

this is all about you you you.

if she gets homesick she will figure it out. IF she gets homesick.
if she wants to see her sibs she will find a way to see them.
this is all about it being cumbersome for you and your fleeting ability to control![/quote]
