[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] My kid is at George Washington U, and in their last parent newsletter, they had an article about kids coming home, and what ground rules to lay out. Being sensitive to the schedule of others in the house was the first topic! This is a classic problem, OP, when college kids have gotten used to being up at all hours of the night in their dorms. THEY have to adapt to YOU. It is rude of them to come in at inappropriate times, and regardless of what some posters on here are writing, after midnight (barring a few parties) is always inappropriate. [/quote] +1000 Being a considerate member of the household is a very, very low bar. Expecting them to adjust to living in the house after being in the dorm for the year is NOT out of line. OP is already using an app and sound machine. Telling her to sleep with earplugs (which are uncomfortable for some people) is ridiculous when all the kids have to do with be quiet. [/quote]
