[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You are making me feel better about my student athlete having to be back on campus already. Our visit felt short, but thank you for highlighting the fact that it's no all roses when they are home for a month. [/quote] We should have our own thread. Mine was only home for about a week before going back for training and it was wonderful and intense, but now DC is gone and I am a bit sad. The benefit is that they are doing what they love and I get to see DC several times each semester when I go to their games. But the breaks are very short.[/quote] One of our kids only came home for 3 days of the one month break because of an off campus job. It was the first real feeling of what empty nesting will be like: his priorities and plans for "days off" do not automatically include us anymore. I think whatever the situation, once you become someone they visit, but that visit isn't guaranteed to happen, your nest is empty.[/quote]
