[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Parent of two college graduates. We never helped them move in. We said our goodbyes at home and they were off. [b]Freshman parents helping with move in is so foreign to me[/b]![/quote] Are you from another country? In the US, this is a standard thing parents do. [/quote] +100 The people bragging about sending their kids alone are pathetic.[/quote] +1000 If you can afford to be there, yes I just don't get why you wouldn't want to be for the 2-3 yours move in takes. Then leave when university requests that parents leave. It's a huge transition, even if it's State U 30 mins from your home. For my kids, they attended places where they literally knew nobody---no one from their HS attended (that's what happens when you to 3K miles from home). So no matter how independent and how extroverted they are, they are still a bit nervous about the new experience. [/quote]
