[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One advice from the other "regrets" thread. Worth repeating here.  
Create a seperate private email account for your child to use for applications, internship requests and PSAT/SAT/ACT and APs. Make sure that you also have access and keep checking the spam folder too. [/quote]

Do you plan on going to college with DC as well to make sure they’re doing their assignments?  Unbelievable.[/quote]

I'm no helicopter parent, and I don't have access to my DCs email or any school portals, but I can absolutely see where that might be useful.  DC gets plenty of college-related email that requires my knowledge/attention (especially in regard to financial aid).  My kid is on top of it and eventually everything that needs to makes it to me, but it would be a whole easier and faster if I could just take a quick look for myself once a week, as opposed to having things forwarded to me out of the blue here and there.  As long as a parent doesn't insert themselves into the process where they don't belong and doesn't take any actions that the student should be taking, there's nothing wrong with having access IMO.[/quote]
