[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I let my kid decide, but was secretly glad when she chose to stay on this side of the country. I had cautioned her that if she chose a school on the west coast, it would mean that she likely [b]could not come home for both Thanksgiving and Christmas (due to the cost of air travel). [/b] After she picked mostly East Coast schools to consider, we favored those that had an Amtrak connection (though did not eliminate those which did not). That was because she did not bring a car to college, and it was convenient for her to just jump on a train and be able to sleep or study on her way home (I was glad to not have to travel to get her every break, Thanksgiving, etc).[/quote] You can’t afford 500 bucks twice a year? Way to scare her into what you wanted all along.[/quote]
