[quote=Anonymous]One time, I (mom) went to my college DD's dorm room to help with something.   Her roommate's bed was filthy, her dirty clothes were strewn on it, damp towels piled up on the bed,   actual fungus growing on damp jeans, dusty table, hair on floor  etc.  Tampons (unused, thankfully) were thrown in the cabinet under the sink, which was a bit leaky and the tampons were damp and wet.

The roommate was also pretty unhealthy as she had severe IBS. She also had behavior and relationship issues and had lots of drama. Thankfully, my kid was not involved.   I was horrified that my kid was in that unsanitary environment.

Lots of college kids are unable to maintain a clean room and have clean clothes in college.  The reason is not that they were spoilt by their parents and not allowed to do laundry or run a vacuum at home.  No, the reason was that they were not raised in a clean home at al.  They have no standards, and no idea of the routine chores that must be done.
