[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She’s also going abroad in January. Now her cash for the fall from summer job is going to be nearly $0 instead of $3000+. This was the dumbest decision I’ve ever seen her make. I think she was pressured and guilt tripped by self-serving friends who urgently needed one last person to join and she really didn’t get what she was doing. She’s never signed a lease before, she’s a naive teen. She had no business entering a lease that began in June. And she shouldn’t get into a lease when she’s going abroad. She could have subbed from someone this fall for one semester. Now she’s paying for 3-4. Dumb![/quote]

I don’t know why you keep shifting the blame to her friends. (Presumably they, too, are naive teens.) If you’re so concerned, why didn’t you talk to her about her housing plans before? [/quote]

Seems rather obvious, to me, if you’re only on campus from Sept-Dec because you’re back home this summer and studying abroad in Jan. you live in a dorm or sub for a single semester. Why in the “F” would you sign a 12 month lease?![/quote]
