[quote=Anonymous]Wow. I have to agree with PP's (although I would have said it differently) that we were having a lot of these talks with our teens when they were in HS - especially about parties, substance abuse and sex assault issues. Our kids were not doe-eyed newbies when they hit campus. That being said, the two major things that I would have emphasized more are money management and time management. Our kids were on an allowance and used money they saved from summer jobs but having manage to a budget was a challenge for them. Also in HS they had good study habits, but pacing themselves to a college workload (with a work study job) was also a challenge. They were able to procastinate in HS and still do well. In college, they could not do that. [/quote]
