[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As soon as my youngest is done with school I’m moving out West. Beautiful condo in a gated with full amenities complex. [/quote]

We just did this (a small house though instead of a condo). My two college aged kids aren't happy with the decision since it makes it much harder for them to see their friends from the DC area. I feel a little guilty that the new house only has one spare bedroom with a pull out couch for the two of them but on the plus side, there is almost no chance that they are coming home to stay for long after college. They are also both making summer plans to work or study in other locations, and have become very focused about their futures. The move definitely helped them become a bit more independent quicker. To compensate, we just took and will continue to take for as long as it works, a really nice family vacation after Christmas each year. We also pay for them to travel pretty much as they want, as long as they are staying with friends and not in hotels. [/quote]
