[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not helicoptering!   [b]I needed guidance from my parents into my 30s/40s. [/b] They are smart with valuable experience and totally on my side.  I trust them.

Just because a person is in college doesn’t mean they don’t need a trusted adult to help![/quote]

And, yet, those of us who by birth lottery didn't have parents who could offer guidance or support are also doing fine (and did fine in college).

I've been following this thread and am annoyed that OP was one of those parents who ignored other parent's pleas to not go ahead with housing in the fall. Our big state school town has a new ordinance that kids can't sign a lease that early, but so many parents breaking it that slumlords carry on. It's a total scarcity mindset, even though seasoned parents say their kids have found housing late spring and even summer for start of school.
