[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DS will be a freshman at an atypical school, and I'm struggling a bit (just a bit!) with the fact he won't have a regular college experience - nor will DH and I get the usual parental experience (whatever that is, but I feel like my parents got it). Just need a reality check. Can DCUM be kind about it? [/quote] This realization came to me during an admitted students and families event and I saw DC willingly interacting with people and even initiating interactions with them. This isn't their norm and it was great seeing them take ownership of this experience. We ended up going to separate sessions for the two days. In some ways I am jealous they get to experience this college life that I did not (I went to a commuter school outside the US). However I am excited for everything there is to come for them. I hope they learn a lot.[/quote]
