[quote=Anonymous]A kid who tells their parents that they feel lonely don't necessarily feel that way 100% of the time. Sure, some kids make 0 connections, but there are others who probably at times feel disconnected (which is maybe when they reach out to parents) but other times are having fun (but it doesn't really come up in conversation with parents). I do know of one parent who is pretty certain their kid is not having a good time in college, and is planning to transfer. For whatever reason, the kid has written off the school as a bad fit, and is not making much effort (at least according to my friend). I don't know if that's become more common--feeling like a place should be a good fit, and not making much effort to change yourself to fit, instead. Maybe in past people just assumed it was them and tried to change? I'm not sure. [/quote]
