[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, not lazy about school and grades - his scholarship and college demands top grades his last semester. But he’s totally checked out of family life. I told DH that I feel invisible most times around him. He just stopped talking to any of us. It’s awful. [/quote] Hugs. We are experiencing the same thing. It's absolutely heartbreaking, but totally normal. [b]Everyone says your old kid returns from college around Thanksgiving,[/b] so I'm hanging onto that hope. [/quote] No, not really. What tends to happen is they come home excited to see their friends from HS. Then realize they don't really have much in common with those people anymore and also are shocked to find out that their family carried out without them. It can cause some acute depression.[/quote] Not my experience, but I can see how that could happen. For many kids, just being away from family helps them appreciate them a bit more. [/quote]
