[quote=Anonymous]It is hard because the 'groups' are the loudest and most visible (in person and on socials) so kids think that is 'everyone but them' while not seeing or hearing there are lots of others out there not in those groups. And then it is a spiral. It is still really, really early. September is incredibly early. My ds was a freshman last year and it was about this time when he realized his promising roommate situation was not that. He did have a social floor so that helped. He said some were and some were not. So much is luck (just like roommate). It took him until the middle of spring semester to even be sure he wanted to come back. He is a soph now living with 3 other great friends and loving life. A complete 180 from this time last year. Also eating alone is not uncommon. My ds said it is not a big deal bc everyone has a different schedule. [/quote]
