[quote=Anonymous]It's good to think about and prepare for, but statistically you will find yourself in this situation. I wouldn't prevent a kid from attending college OOS due to the fear that I couldn't be at the hospital in case of extreme accident. That's letting a statistically low hypothetical guide a very important decision. Perhaps there are other more compelling reasons why OOS school doesn't make sense, but IMO this wouldn't be one of them. In the rare event it happens, you will be amazed how people will step up and help you, either college staff/friends/families helping your child there or by your local network stepping in to help you so you can go be with your kid. I've seen this happen within our online parent group discussion. It's normal to think about these things as our kids launch, but wise not to let our fears control their decisions.[/quote]
