[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some of you need to purchase a home or condo in your DC's college town so you can continue the hand holding and hovering. You'll also likely become the type of hovering, interfering, giving advice in-laws that are so frequently criticized on this forum. [/quote] How old are your children?[/quote] late 30's[/quote] This is why I asked. You have absolutely no clue about what the process is. It is completely different. And you’re dealing with kids who are reporting double the amount of mental health issues than when your kids were in high school. The “tough love” approach you’re espousing is not the fix you think it is. Believe me, I am a 56 year old who set up her own college interviews and pretty much did everything without my parents. My spouse and I are very much about empowering our kids to take responsibility. AND the landscape is very different now. -parent of a 21 & 17 year old [/quote]
