[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have no idea. They handle it. One of my kids was majoring in chem and minoring in music. Another majored in legal studies and minored in creative writing.

No, college kids don't have as much time to "play" as they did in high school. This should not be a shock to a college student or their parent.[/quote]

Times have changed, I guess. I felt like I played way more in college than I did in high school. Probably that's because "regular life" felt more like playing -- for example, eating dinner in the college cafeteria with other kids my age felt more like playing than eating dinner at home with my parents during high school.

Agree.  I had lots of free time in college. Your sons experience sounds miserable, OP. What does HE want to do?[/quote]

OP here.  He is not sure if he wants to go back to GT but he still wants to major in CS.  He will be home this weekend, and has a week to unwind.  After that, he will be volunteering 8am-6pm at the soup kitchens and delivering meals to people in need for the entire summer.  He also signed up to drive less fortunate people on weekends to local dental offices that offer free dental care services.

He is also looking at transferring to GMU or VT as possible destinations. I don't care where he ends up, I just want my happy DS back.[/quote]

GT CS is amazing!! He should try to stick it out. [/quote]
