[quote=Anonymous]OP, one of the best ways you can help your son through this process is what you're already doing: manage your own anxiety. Whatever you can do toward that end will benefit both of you immeasurably. A somewhat anxious friend used the technique of limiting college conversations to a weekly family meeting with a set time and day. Other than that, she only talked to her son about college when he initiated conversations. Your son is going to be surrounded by college talk at school; try to make home a place where he can escape that and gets the clear message that you love him and believe in him and know he will learn, make friends and pursue his interests with energy and enthusiasm wherever he goes to college -- because he already has shown that he can do this.
