[quote=Anonymous]My dd wanted to go to college cross country (in CA), applied to schools there, and when time came to decide, she ended up going to our flagship, It's like she wanted independence, and then reality and logistics hit her. So you never know. And now still she thinks the prospect of being an adult IS terrifiying, despite doing well in college, having a job. It's being on your own, not having the comfort and safety of home. It all hits kids hard despite these kids often having so much more help and emotional and financial support than many of us did. All the talk about AI replacing people, job scarcity and cost of living are not helping either. You just have to sort of put one foot in front of another and keep going, and most of all stay grounded in the present: Classes now, sports/activities now, and not forget to enjoy your teen years.[/quote]
