[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You sure buried the lede OP.
Your kid is SN with ADHD, dyslexia, ASD.
That's not garden variety "anxiety."
What do they plan to do after college?[/quote]

I am the OP and did not bury the lede. You are quoting someone else describing their own kid, not mine.

As for my kid, they have no clue. Just like me at age 17. [/quote]

Also I never described my kid as having "garden variety" anything. I literally said they had SIGNIFICANT anxiety, which is why I'm trying to research how they might be supported at school.

And again, we are not looking for the school to act as a therapist (they have one) or to wake them up in the morning (they do that themselves) or to solve all their problems. But, unlike my other kids, this one is a sensitive soul and needs more support than your average college kid. So, I'm just looking for information about support services at a number of specific schools.

Crazy how people use a question soliciting information about colleges (isn't that the purpose of this forum?) as an opening to attack total strangers, their parenting choices, and children's chances at career success.

What I can't figure out is whether there are just one or two super mean people with way too much time on their hands who turn every DCUM thread into a complete shitshow or if most people are truly this awful and only let it out when offered the veil of anonymity.

Anyway, thanks for the one or two people who actually answered my question. [/quote]
