[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]iI think we parents need to realize that this is just their reality. Everyone their age is going to be going thru the same thing. There's no FOMO, because nothing to miss out on. They are all in the same boat.[/quote] That is not true at all. Many kids are back on campuses already, with dorm roommates, preparing for sorority or fraternity recruitment, hanging out with friends. Every college has a unique plan and every kid is in a different situation. My son goes to Georgetown. A lot of kids teamed up and rented apartments and houses, a lot got left out of those plans, and some couldn’t have afforded it anyway. There is huge FOMO. [/quote] Same. DD has major FOMO here. [/quote] I feel like this time has made FOMO worse. Mine see those carrying on as normal and long for that. Logically they know it is not safe but it doesn’t change their desire to party with friends. [/quote]
