[quote=Anonymous][quote]A lot of growing up happens between 16 and 18, folks ... [/quote] I wouldn't necessarily think this was the case for all kids, based upon how I saw many 18 years olds at my alma mater acting. Or the fact that they had to pass out a flyer telling us that it was "acceptable" to wear coats for sorority rush in upstate NY in the dead of winter. Young people can be very immature and irresponsible, whether they are 16 or 18. However, unless you are going to be telling your child that they need to live at home when they attend college, it would make sense to me to let them try out their independence gradually vs. all at once.[/quote]
