[quote=Anonymous]College can be a chance for a kid to "reinvent" him/herself to get out of the box they've been in since third grade. But only if they go to a college that isn't full of kids they've known since third grade. When I went away to college, I was excited about being the only one from my high school to go there. No one had any preconceived ideas about who I was or what I was like. I was free to present myself in the way I was most comfortable with, and this allowed me to grow and blossom in college. But if your kid has been happy in high school, with lots of friends, and is generally accepted by his/her peers, this wouldn't be as much of an issue.[/quote]
