[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We all use conveniences. Car wash, maid, landscapers, manicure, you name it. My son did his laundry at home from a young age. But at college it’s a hassle and waste of time to find a machine and keep running through the dryer cycles that barely do anything. We paid for the service and it guaranteed he’d have clean clothes and sheets even on busy weeks or when he was sick. Well worth it bc it gives him all that free time to do other things and not have to monitor his laundry. [/quote]

Speak for yourself.  I use none of these.

Also,  I agree with another PP about means. Kids don't make what you do. And, honestly,  most people don't.  The wealthy private and W school parents are so overrepresented on this board.[/quote]

Yes. And they will continue to think this is the norm. Last I check college is about learning all about wise time management. My kid knows that Friday at 8 am NO ONE is using the laundry room. Their machines are set up to alert you when they are finished by 10 am he's all done for the week and off to class. He brought enough t-shirt/shorts/underwear to last 2 weeks if he needs to. He's survived just fine for 3 years. There is no way I would suggest we pay for a laundry service unless he was sick. [/quote]
