[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wait. I'm confused. Is she giving everything she owns and is meaningfully to her away (clothes and belongings) before leaving for college or is she just donating clothes to Goodwill (or where ever) and taking stuff to college?

OP here. She is giving away many things to Goodwill. Of the rather small amount of things she’s not bringing to Goodwill, she plans to bring almost all of it with her to college and leave a very, very small portion at home. [/quote]

Have a DD the same age.  She also just gave away a lot of stuff.  She knows she’s not wearing most of it I’m college, doesn’t have room for it.  I think absent other signs that she’s never coming home again, I wouldn’t worry.  Is she  going to college across the country or with a 4 hour drive? If the latter, I’d expect her to leave winter stuff.  If she’s going farther she’ll likely take everything she thinks she’ll need for the year but may leave things like ski gear, snow boots, beach stuff that she may want, but not at college.[/quote]
