[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it is fine to let her skip it...however I would work on her developing some independence from you. I worked at a college and we had 17 year olds in the dorms who had never spent a night away from their parents. Most had a terrible time and some quit and went home. [/quote] +1[/quote] This is a major issue and you’ve known it. She’s always been prone to homesickness hasn’t spent the night with family in nearly a decade has never attended a sleepover. I think forcing it now without the tools is unfair to her, the chaperones and other kids. This should have been addressed a long time ago in CBT. I think the deal is she agrees to therapy to fix this. I have a friend and her youngest became like this. Needed to be homeschooled on and off through HS. Tried college while living at home and is floundering now in her mid 20s. [/quote]
