[quote=Anonymous]I just bought my son the things I know he’ll need without much consult, because he’s been avoiding. In he’s within earshot I’ll holler “I’m buying sheets. What color?” If I get “I dunno, whatever” that’s what he gets - whatever. So he now has blue or gray sheets, towels, comforter, and rug. He has a fan and a med kit because I want him to have them. I put those things in IKEA bags. He needs to pack his clothes, computer, and sports equipment. I have faith he could do that in an hour if needed, so now I’ll leave it be until the day before. If he hasn’t packed by dinner time the day before we leave I’ll go sit in his room with him and provide moral support. If left to his own devices he’d show up to college with his baseball glove, every T-shirt and pair of shorts he owns, his gaming rig, his pillow, and deodorant. The boy has his priorities. But I want to sleep easier knowing he has what he needs, so I’ll help.[/quote]
