[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Initial thought would be -- a millennial snowflake who couldn't handle the dorms for whatever reason -- didn't want to share a room, bathroom, couldn't cope with noise etc. -- so she ran home to Mama and Daddy's McMansion in the suburbs where she can get all the quiet and privacy she needs.

And the reason SOO many PPs are so supportive of this is bc they are raising their snowflakes the same way and many of them realize this could be their kid in another 18 yrs.[/quote]
What's wrong with not liking dorms?! I am a very successful adult who lived in a dorms for 2 years (living at home was not an option because I grew up in a rural area and the closest college was at least an hour away, and you were required to live in dorms the first 2 years) and I was soooo glad when I could finally get an off campus apartment with my own bathroom (well, to share with two roommates), kitchen, etc. Dorm living was just not my thing...

I mean, they are fun for a lot of people, but not everyone, and I don't think living in a 10x12 space with another person or sharing a bathroom with 20 other people is at all crucial to becoming a successful adult or that if someone doesn't like dorm living, it is an indication that they are unable to cope with the real world or something...[/quote]
